Union. The variety actually originated from a
vegetable seed firm in Siberia. It is a smallish round
tomato with shining dark purple skin. It is quite cold
and wet tolerant and is able to set fruit at lower
temperatures than many tomatoes. Its unique smoky
flavour has put it at the top of tomato taste tests
around the world.
TPR001
This is perhaps my favourite tomato for flavour and
many Ferme du Zéphyr clients have raved about
the Cherokee Purple's distinct and rich flavour.
Don't be put off by the sometimes misshapen fruits,
or by the cracks and fissures that can appear on the
skin, especially during hot summers. Cut out the
offending part on the skin and just keep on eating.
These are the best! 75 days to maturity.
