Purple Cherry Tomato

Purple Cherry Tomatoes are a great addition to the garden from a nutritional standpoint. This variety was bred to have an abundance of anthocyanins — the same pigments that give blueberries their deep blue hue — and shades of blackish purple in the tomato’s outer flesh and skin. Anthocyanins are also flavonoids, compounds believed to be powerful antioxidants with benefits for human health. These tomato’s will be dark purple when young, and then will turn black and orange once they ripen. This variety is not only delicious, but vigorous and bug resistant.
