2007 Tomato -- Red Currant (in a container)

This was a rather fun tomato. The tomatoes are real small, roughly pea sized, about 3/8 inches in diameter. The taste kind of reminds me of the candy SweeTarts – a tomato taste with a bite at the end. Great for salads.

This plant produced well in the early summer, then had a second wind and had hundreds of tomatoes that hung on for months and didn't turn red. I think the plant got too warm in the container and couldn't quite get over the hump with the second batch. This year we've planted it in the ground and it's already taken off.
