Jujube Cherry Tomato

Firm grape-like tomato, with excellent taste both raw and cooked. My favorite use for this tomato is in quick pasta dishes. I halve and sautee in a skillet with garlic and olive, then add cooked pasta and fresh, chopped basil leaves. Scrumptious!

Had to start three sets of six seeds before I finally got two plants. They never seemed to be the sturdiest plants all season and one quite suddenly died early August for no apparent reason. This being said, they are quite prolific producers to my surprise, and if they are left to be very ripe on the vine, have a distinctly fruitier flavor than most cherry/grape types. These have a firmer texture than most tomatoes and hold up well on the kitchen counter for over a week.

Blight hit early and hard in the greenhouse and did not respond to organic fungicides, while other varieties did. While very productive flowers/pollination, fruits are too small and flavorless to be useful. It's a fuss to try to pick tomato pellets (resemble rabbit pellets) from the vive.

Excellent producer, even in the cooler climes of Northern Maine. Kid favorite.

This tomato did excellent Praise the Lord! It is one of our favorites. Last year, some of them came back, and did well against early blight, and heavy yields
