Extra big, bright red, juicy grape-shaped fruits are super productive. Classic tomato flavor with just a hint of sweetness. Skins are a wee bit thicker than most cherry tomatoes making them the perfect candidate for dehydrating or freezing. The sturdier skins also naturally mean that the fruits will hang longer on the vine - without cracking - as well as on the countertop!
HISTORY: I obtained my original seed from Trudi Greissle Davidoff, owner of WinterSown.org. The label stated: "Saved by a loving daughter, these are yummy grape tomatoes, nice for salad or snacking, IND, 72+ DTM".
I reached out to Trudi asking for more details and this is what she said: "The only information I have is the name I gave the seeds. If I recall right they were sent with a note about that they reseeded in her Mom's garden and that they were something they always looked forward to. I want to say Indiana or Ohio but can't remember, I don't have the correspondence anymore."
Sold in a 3.5" pot.
