These tomatoes are too small to even bother harvesting. The growth habit was all over the place, even for an indeterminate tomato. And they were bland.
These germinate really well as do most of PV seeds do. They were really cute little plants but they produce a lot. Tomatoes were about the size of a nickel. Excellent tossed into a salad or as a cute garnish.
We've been growing these for years, but don't put them in your garden. They are a volunteer nightmare. Plant them somewhere they can naturalize, they volunteer great. Kids love them, our absolute favorite cherry.
An amazing variety; tiny fruits that are the perfect size for salads without cutting them. Full tomato flavor and color. Plant itself grows like a weed; gets bushy and produces oodles of fruit in a very long season. No cracking or blemishes and very long season. I had one growing in my compost heap unbeknownst to me that still had edible fruit down under some brush cover that I picked in October! Plan one or two plants and give the lots of space and support.
Grows like wildfire; even producing fruit in the cold Midwest and in a protected compost pile long after frost! As a caterer I love the tiny fruit- no cutting for salads. Vibrant red color and big burst of tomato flavor. No cracking, spots. Highly recommend.
