Sweet Orange II Early Midseason

Regular Leaf

This cherry tomato has the same sweet and fruity taste of a large orange tomato. Some of my customers have commented that the flavour of Sweet Orange II makes it a worthy substitution for the hybrid, Sun Gold. Tim Peters of Peters Seed Research is responsible for breeding this variety that will produce 17 grams (5/8 oz.) hanging in clusters of up to 20. I am so grateful to Bobby Johnson Jr. (WA) for sending me his seeds to make this variety more widely available.

Sweet Tumbler Early

Regular Leaf

Dwarf Determinate

An Australian Open-pollinated tumbler type pink cherry tomato that will only grow 6 to 8” tall. At times it will seem that this plant will produce more flowers than leaves. In terms of taste, this plant lives up to its name “sweet”.

Tommy Toe Midseason

Regular Leaf

One taste of this red cherry tomato and you will see why it is one of Australia’s most popular varieties, even though it originated in the Ozark Mountains. Tommy Toe has a great tomato taste melded with just the right amount of sweetness. Tommy Toe will usually set 12-16 different sized fruit per truss.
