Tomato 'Red Cherry' (Solanum lycopersicum) is a classic, highly productive open-pollinated heirloom prized for its sweet flavor and continuous summer yields. Producing vigorous, indeterminate vines that reach 5 to 7 feet in height, it bears heavy clusters of uniform, round, 1-inch fruits. The bright crimson-red cherry tomatoes feature thin, tender skins and juicy flesh with a balanced, classic tomato flavor profile. Exceptionally versatile in the kitchen, Red Cherry tomatoes are ideal for fresh snacking, salads, vegetable skewers, and light summer roasting.
