Heirloom Tomato Review -A Series
Matt’s Wild Cherry -#1
This is the first in a series of stories reviewing heirloom tomato varieties that I have personally grown. Perhaps these reviews will make it easier for you to choose ones you want to try and enjoy.
There are so many heirloom tomatoes to try. Such a problem to have. Each season I try some different ones, along with growing my trusted favorites. If you have never tried heirlooms, give them a try, you won’t be disappointed.
If you like cherry tomatoes then Matt’s Wild Cherry is for you. These tiny gems (even small for a cherry tomato) were likely derived from wild tomato plants originally from Mexico. These fruits are very sweet, however somewhat fragile. I found it is best to clip the stems with the tomatoes still attached. They keep much better this way.
The yield from these plants is fantastic. You can’t go wrong with these little wonders. They are available from various sellers including Johnny’s Seeds from Maine.
For more into regarding heirloom tomatoes, I have written quite a few posts on Blogger. Once you try growing the heirlooms, I guarantee they will become “the norm” for you.
