Notes

'Chocolate Cherry' tomato (Solanum lycopersicum 'Chocolate Cherry') is a vegetable for the food garden. It is typically grown as an annual. It is not cold-hardy and will not survive freezing temperatures. This plant likes full sun. The burgundy red fruit is grown for fresh eating and has sweet, rich flavor. Each one inch fruit is crack resistant, and you can harvest in 70 days.

Pairs well with Lemon basil, Shishito shishito pepper, and French lavender.
