Cherokee Purple is the iconic heirloom that sparked the modern tomato revolution. Deeply colored with dusky rose-purple skin and deep crimson flesh, it delivers the most complex, unforgettable flavor in the tomato world. Sweet, acidic, and mysteriously smoky all at once. This is the tomato that converted millions to heirloom growing. Expect 8–12 oz fruits on vigorous indeterminate plants.
