Wildlife love them, so they must be good!
Rabbits and deer chose to enjoy these before I could this year, But the seeds were high quality, the plants were growing strong, then they were gone. I will for sure grow these again next year however as I really enjoyed the ones I grew last year from seed from seedsnow.com. I have no negative memories...

One of the two best-tasting heirloom tomatoes ever.
This one's a must-grow. It's a longer wait for these guys than for smaller tomatoes, but it really pays off in flavor. Get these and Brandywine and never be able to eat a grocery-store tomato again.

cherokee purple tomato
I harvested a 12.5 oz and 14 oz fruit. Early fruits were largest. Sunscald, blossum end rot and cracking were a problem - normal for Central Florida in the early summer. Will grow again this fall. Really great taste.
