Native Florida Wild Everglades Tomato. Cherry-type heirloom, sweet, real tomato taste. About the size of a penny. These little tomatoes have more flavor than any store bought average tomato. Great right off the vine for a quick snack, and yummy in a salad. These grow wild in the Florida Everglades, and are nearly indestructable. Kids love them!

Southern J Ranch takes great pride in being 3rd generation Floridians. We grow what we sell. In 2010, we decided to grow a few rare varieties of tomato and hot peppers, and offer these seeds for sell to the public. Since these were a big hit locally, we thought we would offer them to the online community.
