Cherry Nation


Sometimes the little cherry tomatoes take a back seat to their large cousins, when discussing my collection. They, however are are just as important, if not more so, than the larger ones I grow. They are truly a garden candy and account for almost half my sales. Whereas with the larger ones I grow almost all heirlooms or open polinated types. Not so with the cherries. I have found that most of the heirloom cherry tomatoes cant match up to the Hybrid or F1 types I grow. Non compare with the Sun Gold or Supersweet 100 or Sweet Baby Girls, for sweetness and production. That is why I still grow some Hybrids. Cause they can't be beat.
