Cherokee Purple Tomato

SKU: TOM11
/

Indeterminate- This Tennessee heirloom is believed to have been passed down by Native Americans of the Cherokee tribe. The plant is open-pollinated, indeterminate, bearing 8 oz flattened globe fruits that are dark reddish-purple to black. It is meaty tomato with a bold flavor. Won best-tasting tomato in 2012. Let it fully ripen on the vine before harvesting for the best flavor!

Great tasting, crowd favorite

This year I grew a couple Cherokee Purple tomato plants for my own garden and gave some plants to friends and two local community gardens. Everyone who ate them, even some self-proclaimed haters of raw tomatoes, loved the flavor. They also got tons of compliments on their beautiful appearance.

Family favorite

One of the best tasting tomatoes out there. Smoky and rich - it doesn’t get much better than this.

Nice Flavor and great germination

I have grown these over the last 4 years. They are delicious and last longer than most tomatoes.
