Cherokee Purple
Description:
Very productive plants bear loads of 10 to 12 oz. dusky
rose/purple fruit with deep brick red interiors. The tomatoes
are absolutely delicious with a pleasantly sweet and rich
flavor. With thin skin and soft flesh, the fruit is somewhat
perishable, but they taste so good they will be eaten quickly
anyhow. Heirloom from Tennessee. Indeterminate. 80 days.
Notes:
Purplish or black in color, these medium tomatoes were
delicious. The foliage seem to dry out after the first crop was
harvested and failed to produced reliable throughout the year.
If you have room for them then grow this tomato, otherwise save
your space for higher yielding tomatoes. I planted this tomato
multiple times with consistent results.
