These small cherry tomatoes are deep-red, tender, smooth, and full-flavoured with a high sugar content. Though the flavour is superior, it doesn't yield as well as modern varieties, and the fruits are soft. Fantastic in salsa and for fresh eating. Some resistance to early blight and late blight. These come to us from Teresa Arellanos de Mena, who brought them to Maine from her family's home state of Hidalgo in Eastern Mexico (the region where these tomatoes grow wild). Teresa gave the seeds to her friend Matt Leibman, a former Univ. of Maine AG faculty member, who then gave the seeds to Johnny's Seeds. We got them from Johnny's. Avg. fruit size 5 gm. Indeterminate.
