Cherokee Purple is a beloved heirloom tomato known for its large, dusky-rose fruits and rich, complex flavor. Plants arrive at 4 to 6 inches tall, ready to settle into warm soil and begin vigorous growth.
Grow these indeterminate plants in a sunny garden bed or a large container with support. The beefsteak-type fruits are excellent sliced fresh for sandwiches and salads, cooked into sauces, or shared at the peak of summer. Fruit ripens mid to late season and continues setting until frost.
