Cherokee Purple is one of those tomatoes you grow once and immediately understand the hype. The color is incredible—deep, dusky rose with dark shoulders—and the flavor is even better. These 8–12 oz. slicers are rich, sweet, and full of that real old-time tomato taste we all wish grocery-store tomatoes still had. This heirloom has been cherished by home gardeners for decades, and it remains one of the best-tasting slicing tomatoes you can put in your garden. The plants are indeterminate but surprisingly manageable, rewarding you with big, beautiful fruit all season long.
