In winter, I used to browse seed catalogs that came in the mail. Now I browse them on the Internet.
I’m a major fan of tomatoes and came across this interesting black cherry tomato at Seed Parade, a UK seed company.
Since I ‘ve been growing them in my small garden, where full sun is at a premium, I’ve come to really appreciate the abundant harvest obtained from cherry tomatoes.
This tomato is sprawling, which may not be good for my limited space, but is an organic variety. The only truly black cherry tomato.Order American at TomatoFest, an organic seed company in California that specializes in – yep, tomatoes! They are located in Carmel, so you want to doublecheck with them about how this tomato will do in our hotter climate. Gary Ibsen, the owner, says: “These tomatoes produce huge clusters of 1″, round, deep purple, mahogany-brown cherry tomatoes. Fruits are irresistibly delicious with sweet, rich, complex, full tomato flavors that burst in your mouth, characteristic of the best flavorful black tomatoes. Beautiful to mix with other colored cherry tomatoes. Unique tomato variety. Disease resistant. Once you try it…you want MORE.”
