The small round cherries are produced in generous clusters on vigorous indeterminate vines, offering a striking contrast of color against the green foliage and making a decorative addition to any vegetable garden or patio container.\u003cbr\u003e\nGrown primarily for fresh eating, the fruits bring a balanced sweet-tart flavor to salads, salsas, and snacks, and their unusual coloring makes a dramatic garnish. Indeterminate plants continue to set fruit through the season until frost, rewarding consistent harvesting. Provide support such as stakes or cages, keep moisture even, and harvest when fruits deepen in color and release easily from the stem.\u003cbr\u003e\nSpecies: Solanum lycopersicum\u003cbr\u003e\nVariety: Black Pearl\u003cbr\u003e\nType: Indeterminate cherry tomato\u003cbr\u003e\nPlant_Habit: Vigorous vining, requires staking or caging\u003cbr\u003e\nSun: Full sun, 6 to 8 hours daily\u003cbr\u003e\nSoil: Well-drained, fertile, slightly acidic to neutral\u003cbr\u003e\nDays_to_Harvest: 70 to 80 days from transplant\u003cbr\u003e\nZones: 4 to 11 as an annual\u003cbr\u003e\nGermination: 7 to 14 days at 70 to 80F\u003cbr\u003e\nSowing: Start indoors 6 to 8 weeks before last frost, surface sow and lightly cover\u003cbr\u003e\nSpacing: 24 to 36 inches between plants\u003cbr\u003e\nNotes: Mulch to conserve moisture and water at the base to keep foliage dry\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67664790225032,"sku":"ANNISA-253","price":31.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0717\/4648\/6408\/files\/il_fullxfull.8016408225_j5jv_9747254a-50d2-465c-9a1c-37a2a401eb28.jpg?v=1791899220","url":"https:\/\/www.natesgardensupply.com\/products\/100-seeds-black-pearl-cherry-tomato-solanum-lycopersicum-dark-cherry","provider":"Nate's Garden Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
