Details

Cherokee Rose is a unique variation of the renowned Cherokee Purple. Its dusty rose appearance is so exotic and unusual that it could easily mistaken as something completely different than a tomato. The fuzzy texture makes this particular mutation a true standout. Cherokee Rose also has a fascinating matte finish that blends well with its fuzzy skin. The fruit is large and meaty, usually weighing 6-8 oz. true to its Cherokee Purple roots, Cherokee Rose has a richly sweet flavor that appeals to a broad audience. On top of all its other peculiar traits it also is very generous production-wise. Indeterminate.
