Indigo – Cherry Drops

Price range: $3.50 through $625.00

Stunning new cocktail cherry tomato from Oregon State University. The 1″ fruits are purple/black due to high anthocyanin levels, with rosy undersides and deep red flesh. Excellent sweet flavor. Huge yields, potentially 500-1,000 fruits per plant under ideal growing conditions. Grafting will improve yields even more. Bred by Dr. Jim Myers at Oregon State using traditional plant breeding techniques. The fruits draw their color from the wild tomatoes found in the Galapagos Islands and Peru. Indeterminate. 65 days from transplant. (OSU S251) PVP201500117
