Black cherry: (75 days) Open-pollinated. Indeterminate. Great flavor, but tend to crack. Fedco says:
"Two-bite cherries (avg 14–28g) with the dusky color and complex flavor typical of the best black tomatoes, juicy and delicious. Somewhat late for a cherry tomato, but worth the wait. Fruit ripens slowly and individually until frost. Examine each plant closely at picking time: the dark-hued cherries are easy to lose in the foliage. Best flavor if left to ripen on the vine till nice and dark. Seems to tolerate the usual tomato diseases but fruits will crack readily in rainy weather. Combine with Sun Gold and any bright red cherry for a lovely display. Brix 7. Developed by Vince Sapp of Tomato Growers Supply and released 2003."

Gardener's Delight red cherry tomato: "(68 days) Open-pollinated. Indeterminate.
Fedco says: ""Also known as Sugar Lump, and of German origin, but not an heirloom as we once believed. Introduced by Ernst Benary in 1950-51. A parent of the famous hybrid Sweet 100. Produces the kind of rich sweet deep red 1""+ cherries that you will want to pop into your mouth in profusion while you bask in the garden sunshine. The large plants need staking and will bear till frost. The fruits taste so good that we overlook their annoying tendency to crack."

Green Doctors Frosted cherry tomato: Largish, oval green cherry tomatoes that mature to a golden blush. Very productive. 81 days to maturity.

Spoon - tiny red cherry: Tasty and adorable - can fit several tomatoes on a spoon. Entertain the kids picking these toy-sized tomatoes!
