Description
Cherry Tomatoes truly are a small gardener’s best friend. You don’t need many plants to end up with a steady supply of tasty summer fruits. And for urban gardeners growing in containers, cherry tomaotes are even more friendly- they’ll soak up less of your water and demand much less of your time and attention than slicing tomatoes.
These Fox Cherry Tomatoes are slightly larger than standard cherries, meaning more bang for your buck. They’re almost big enough to call a small slicing tomato.
