Sweetie Cherry Tomato Seeds
Sweetie Cherry Tomatoes live up to their name completely—these small, round, deep red cherries carry one of the highest sugar levels of any cherry tomato, delivering a burst of pure, intense sweetness with every single bite. Incredibly prolific on tall, vigorous vines, they produce hundreds of fruits per season and are absolutely irresistible eaten warm and straight from the garden. A family favorite, especially for children, who will spend more time snacking in the garden than bringing tomatoes to the kitchen.
Growing Instructions: Start indoors 6–8 weeks before last frost. Transplant after last frost when soil is warm and nights are reliably above 50°F. Provide strong caging or staking for tall indeterminate vines. Harvest clusters when fruits have deepened to a rich, full red for maximum sweetness.
