Details
The Prairie Fire Tomato is a delightfully sweet and visually stunning variety that’s perfect for snacking straight off the vine. Its compact, indeterminate vines are incredibly productive, yielding an abundance of pointed, grape-shaped fruits measuring about 1 inch across and 3 inches long. The scarlet-red fruits shimmer with subtle gold striping, making them as beautiful as they are irresistible.
Renowned for their saccharine sweetness, these tomatoes are often described as "garden candy," loved by kids and adults alike. Their rich, fruity flavor and juicy texture make them perfect for snacking, and they rarely make it to the kitchen before being enjoyed fresh off the plant.
Prairie Fire plants produce early and prolifically, making them a fantastic choice for gardeners seeking a reliable, crowd-pleasing variety. Whether you’re popping them into your mouth as a snack, tossing them into salads, or simply admiring their shimmering beauty, Prairie Fire Tomatoes are sure to become a favorite in any garden.
