The Cherokee Purple tomato is a great conversation plant among gardeners, thanks to its rich history, distinctive color, and unforgettable flavor.

Originally grown by Cherokee Indians, this treasured heirloom variety has been enjoyed for over 100 years and continues to be a favorite among home gardeners.

Cherokee Purple tomatoes are known for their smoky, sweet flavor and beautiful pinkish-purple flesh. The large, flavorful fruits typically weigh 10 to 12 oz, making them ideal for slicing, sandwiches, burgers, salads, and other fresh recipes. This disease-tolerant heirloom tomato variety thrives in full sun and warm growing conditions, making it an excellent addition to sunny vegetable gardens.

Cherokee Purple tomato plants have an indeterminate growth habit, meaning its vigorous vines continue growing and producing fruit throughout the season rather than delivering one single harvest. With sturdy stakes, cages, or other support, the plants can reward gardeners with a steady, extended supply of delicious tomatoes.
