- Kane W.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars7/12/26Can't grow enough
Because I eat them as they ripen on the vine...so savory and sweet. The ideal cherry tomato.
I'll eat these words in a month, but holy cow I'm impressed.

We're so happy to hear about your incredible experience with the Sun Gold Pole Cherry Tomato Seeds! It's awesome that they're so savory and sweet you can't help but eat them straight off the vine - that's the ultimate test of a perfect cherry tomato right there! And we totally get the "can't grow enough" struggle when they taste that amazing! There's nothing better than tomatoes that are so irresistible you're already planning to eat your words about being impressed (but honestly, we think you'll just be even more blown away as the season goes on)! Thanks for sharing your Sun Gold growing success with us! Keep on growing 🌻️
