Description

Rich and vigorous cherry tomato with dark red-brown fruits (15-25g). The taste of these small crisp tomatoes is wonderfully aromatic, fruity-sweet with a subtle sour note. The coloration of the tomatoes changes from green to dark purple-red, mahogany to black-purple as they ripen. The violet-red flesh shimmers through the transparent skin. The pleasantly soft fruits have a firm skin, are burst and cut resistant and therefore also good for use as small salad tomatoes.

Non hybrid

Not frost resistant

Best protection against late blight is a roof over the plants. Regular pruning and upward guiding. Further cultivation tips for the species Cocktail stake tomato.
