Black Cherry 75 days. A unique dusky black cherry tomato known for its surprising sweetness. Two-bite cherry size with a complex, low acid taste typical of many black fruited varieties.
Blondköpfchen 75 – 80 days. Aka “Little Blonde Girl”. Heirloom from Gatersleben Seed Bank East Germany. Enormous yields of one-inch long golden-yellow cherry tomatoes on multiflora trusses. Indeterminate, sprawling plants need staking. Produce right up until frost. Seeds are slow to germinate – a characteristic of multiflora types – so be patient!
Gardener's Sweetheart 65 days. A very special recent introduction from Will Bonsall of the Scatterseed Project in Maine. Will selected this variety from a chance cross between Gardener’s Delight cherry tomato and an Italian plum tomato. Fruits are super-abundant, bright red and strawberry-shaped. Very resistant to cracking. Sure to become very popular in the next few years.
Ildi 65 days. A very high yielding and early maturing indeterminate variety. Incredible masses of small lemon-yellow grape tomatoes – up to 50 fruits in a single cluster! Flavour is zesty and superb in salads or for snacking right off the vine.
Lemon Drops 85 days. Very tasty, these tiny ½ - ¾ inch lemon colored cherry tomatoes make the perfect addition to salads. This variety will surprise you with its tart and sweet flavor. A very heavy producer, and well-adapted to cold wet growing conditions.
Matt's Wild Cherry 60 days. These prolific, deep-red currant tomatoes are lusciously tangy and flavorful, and you will have trouble keeping up with picking them. Pick often, as the skins are thin and will crack with a lot of rain. Vines are rampant and sprawling, so trellis them to save space. An early producer with good blight resistance. Originated in Mexico, where it grows wild.
Peacevine 78 days. An outstanding de-hybridized selection of the hybrid Sweet 100 cherry tomato. Bred and selected by Dr. Alan Kapuler of Peace Seeds in Oregon. Tremendous producer of 3/4 inch red cherry tomatoes borne on trusses of 6 to 10 fruits. Known to be exceptionally high in Vitamin C. The plants are very indeterminate, so provide support!
Petit Moineau Currant Tomato Lycopersicon pimpinellifolium 75-80 days. A Québec heirloom variety dating back to the 1940’s. Plants take a while to establish, and like all currant tomatoes are somewhat difficult to germinate, but once established they became large, sprawling and oh-so-productive! Fruits are about the size of a large blueberry and have a distinct sweet flavour ideal for snacking and salads. Shows tolerance to cool autumn weather better than most regular tomatoes.
Principe Borghese 75 days. Plum-shaped cherry type. Vigorous determinate Italian heirloom, favoured for sun-dried tomatoes in Italy. Dense flesh and few seeds. An outstanding producer.
Rideau Sweet Cherry Tomato 75 days. An open-pollinated improvement over the well-known hybrid Sweet 100, selected by Ken Allan of Kingston, Ontario. Huge fruit set – each truss bears up to fourteen one inch, bite-sized red fruit on tall indeterminate plants capable of astounding yield.
