Tomato Miniature Red Pear Seeds

Unit price perSolanum lycopersicum
Miniature Red Pear is a charming cherry tomato producing an abundance of tiny, bright red, pear-shaped fruits. Sweet, juicy and perfectly bite-sized, the fruits are excellent for snacking straight from the vine and are especially appealing in children's gardens.
The little pear-shaped tomatoes are delicious raw in salads, lunchboxes and platters, but are equally good roasted whole, when their sweetness becomes more concentrated. Their distinctive shape and prolific production also make them an attractive addition to mixed cherry tomato harvests.
Plants are vigorous and indeterminate, continuing to flower and produce clusters of fruit throughout the season. Regular picking encourages continued production, and sturdy staking or trellising will support the heavily laden vines.
Seed count: approximately 250–400 seeds per gram. Approximately 40 seeds per packet.
