Organic Fox Cherry Tomato Art Pack
Flavorful Mini Marvel
The Fox Cherry Tomato, an heirloom variety, traces its origins to the United States. This cultivar, a part of the Solanum lycopersicum species, has gained popularity for its versatility and robust growth, making it a favorite among gardeners and culinary enthusiasts.
Characterized by its small, round fruits, the Fox Cherry Tomato showcases a vibrant red hue when fully ripe. The plants, typically indeterminate, boast vigorous growth and produce plentiful clusters of these cherry tomatoes, creating a picturesque sight in gardens or containers.
Regarding taste, the Fox Cherry Tomato offers a delightful balance of sweetness and acidity. Its juicy flesh bursts with a rich, tangy flavor, adding a zesty punch to salads, salsas, and various culinary creations. Its small size and intense flavor make it a convenient and flavorful choice for snacking or as a colorful garnish.
To cultivate Fox Cherry Tomatoes from seed, specific growing conditions are favorable. Thriving in warm climates, they require ample sunlight, around 6-8 hours of direct sun exposure daily. Well-draining, nutrient-rich soil with a pH level between 6.0 and 6.8 is ideal for their growth. Planting from seed involves starting indoors approximately 6-8 weeks before the last expected frost date. Sow seeds 1/4 inch deep in seedling trays or small pots, ensuring consistent moisture and warmth for germination.
Once the seedlings have developed several true leaves and all danger of frost has passed, transplant them into larger containers or the garden. Supporting the vines with stakes or cages aids in their growth and fruit production. With proper care, the Fox Cherry Tomato promises a bountiful harvest of tangy, flavorful fruits for culinary enjoyment.

Planting & Care
Planting & Care
Soil & Water: Tomatoes love fertile soil rich in organic matter. Add plenty of compost prior to planting. Soil pH is preferred between 5.5-7.0. Soak the soil 4"-6" deep at 7-day intervals.
Planting & Growing: Sow seeds in flats 6-8 weeks before the last frost and thin to 2" apart after the first true leaves appear. Before transplanting after the last frost, harden off the plants by placing them outdoors for a few hours to start, increasing the amount of time each day until they are accustomed to a full day of sunlight.
Harvesting & Storage: Harvest when individual fruits give slightly under finger pressure; the shoulders may not have changed color yet.

Let customers speak for us
I grow flats of this for my pet pigs, because of the high nutritional content. They love it. I find them waiting at the growing location every afternoon waiting for their fave. I've grown beautiful flats of pea sprouts and alfalfa for them too, but they turn up their snouts and walk away.
