(Solanum lycopersicum)
62 days. Open polinated Heirloom. Determ.
This little bush gets just loaded with rich flavored, red cherry tomatoes early. Holds its frutis up above the plant, so it is a good choice if you do not want to cage your plants. Does well in areas with cool nights. We grew it with great success in Northern Idaho. Also does well for us in the early part of the season here in southern Missouri. From Russia. A slow germinator, but once going it is a strong grower. Seems to prefer cooler temperatures to germinate than most tomatoes.
Germinated at 80% on 1/2/11.
