7. 732.54 Matt's Wild Cherry Tomato Seed, - 1 X 5000 seeds
Days to maturity – 60 days (Annual)
Take advantage of our overstock position! The wild tomato with great flavour. These small cherry tomatoes are deep-red, tender, smooth, and full-flavored with a high sugar content. Though the flavour is superior, it doesn't yield as well as modern varieties, and the fruits are soft. Fantastic in salsa and for fresh eating. Some resistance to early blight and late blight. The story of how we obtained 'Matt's Wild Cherry' seeds can be traced back to Teresa Arellanos de Mena who brought them to Maine from her family's home state of Hidalgo in Eastern Mexico (the region where these tomatoes grow wild). Teresa gave the seeds to her friend Matt Leibman, a former Univ. of Maine AG faculty member, who then gave the seeds to us. Avg. fruit size 5 gm. Indeterminate. Avg. 31,450 seeds/oz. Packet: 40 seeds.
LATIN NAME: Solanum lycopersicum var. cerasiforme

One of the best tasting tomatoes. We describe Brandywine's luscious, heirloom flavor as "very rich, loud, and distinctively spicy." The large fruits, often over 1 lb., have a deep-pink skin and smooth, red flesh. The medium-tall, potato-leaf plant is best staked or caged. Our 'Quisenberry' strain is considered among the best.
