My new favorite cherry tomato, it’s so sweet and prolific you’ll be drowning in them by the end of the season. They germinated well and I ended up planting 4 plants in my garden this year, which was enough to feed me, my family of 3, and 4 of my close friends, with plenty left over for the squirrels and chipmunks! I think I’ll plant 2 next year but you never know 😂

Second time purchasing the cherry tomatoes. I had an abundance last time and hoping as good a crop this time around.
