An old heirloom from the Cherokee Native Indian Tribe, it will wow in your garden with its medium large 8-12 oz fruit with dark shoulders and a cherry pink body.

Hardiness: warm season annual
Flower Color: yellow
Characteristics: indeterminate heirloom with 8-12 oz rich dark color fruit that is heat tolerant and full of flavor best eaten fresh or in salads
Maturity: 80-90 days
Sowing Instructions:
Start indoors 6-8 weeks before last frost date in soilless starter mix. Sow seeds ¼” deep and keep moist and between 75-85 degrees until germination in 7-14 days. Cold temperatures slow down germination significantly. Transplant to 4” pot when two sets of true leaves show and plant is safe to work with. If weather is still cool and plant is getting leggy bump up to 1 gallon so tomato doesn’t become root bound. When weather is warm and frost date has passed, plant in full sun rich well-draining soil location. Space determinate varieties 1-2’ apart, indeterminate staked 2-3’ apart and indeterminate unstaked 3-4’ apart. Keep soil evenly moist throughout season but excess water causes cracking. Tomatoes prefer high nitrogen fertilizer when young and high phosphorus when setting fruit.
