Park Seed Braveheart Hybrid Cherry Tomato Seeds

Description / Braveheart Hybrid Cherry Tomato Seeds

Days to Maturity: 60 from transplant

Indeterminate

Until you've tasted Braveheart, you haven't really eaten a homegrown cherry tomato. That's because this variety is thin-skinned, unlike those leathery supermarket cherries, and it's just bursting with rich, meaty, sugary, juicy flavor. All the complex notes of a beefsteak are contained in every small round fruit.

Just one ounce on average, this fruit is round and bright red. It arises by the many, many dozen over a long season on vigorous indeterminate plants. The flavor is irresistible, the look is charming—you will find yourself making excuses to go out to the garden and sneak a handful of these for healthy between-meal snacking.

Great disease resistance is the secret to Braveheart's yields—you just get more fruit on every stem, and the harvest season lasts all summer. This tough plant stands up to leaf mold, Fusarium wilt, fusarium crown and root rot, tomato mosaic virus, and gray leaf spot. You just can't beat that.

Start seeds indoors 5 to 6 weeks before the last frost date. Plant outdoors when danger of frost is past and night temperatures consistently remain above 55 degrees Fahrenheit. If a late frost is forecasted, protect young plants with plastic sheeting or other cover. Set plants 2 to 2½ feet apart.
