Description: (Indeterminate/80 days) Purple Cherokee is a legendary heirloom tomato that has been grown by Cherokee Native Americans since at least the late 1800’s. It was introduced to most of us by tomato enthusiast Craig Lehoullier, who discovered it through a chance encounter. Widely renowned as one of the best tasting tomatoes in the world and winner of numerous awards, the fruit is perfectly balanced between sweet, acidic, zingy, and even a little smoky. Try this one; you will not be disappointed.

Do not plant out until 2 weeks after last frost. Tomato seeds require high soil temperatures for good germination rates. We highly recommend heat mats to ensure and speed up germination. Pot up to 3–4 inch pots when first true leaves develop (not cotyledon leaves). Harden off plants for 1-2 weeks in full sun before transplanting them outside (after last frost). Make sure to give tomato plants a lot of space for vigorous root and foliage growth.
