Black Cherry! This
tomato is a winner. It always seems that
I cannot keep enough fruit on the vine to harvest for market, without the
family helping themselves to this delicious treat. Black Cherry is probably one of my most
popular tomatoes at market. I also
noticed that I sell a lot of plants as well.
So I am convinced that Black Cherry grows well in our climate here in
NY.
It is to my
understanding that Black Cherry was developed by Vince Sapp, owner of Tomato
Growers Supply, from a natural cross released in 2003.
Black Cherry is an early variety that is indeterminate,
regular leaf. The fruit is about one
inch in diameter with a dark dusky purplish/black color to them. Excellent flavor, great for snacking and in
salads; we call them “Garden Candy”, here.
