The listing, Florida native heirloom cherry tomatoe seeds has ended.
Grow your own tomatoes yr round? This native grows like a weed & doesn't mind heat/drought. Sets dime-size fruit in about 50 days w/ zillions of tiny, sweet tomatoes, even in the summer. Modest watering, it thrives w/ neglect. Fruits are delicious! They taste like vine grown tomatoes that you can't buy anymore because they are frozen.
Need to prune your Everglades tomato to keep it from taking over your garden beds? What are ya going to do with all those tiny green tomatoes? Toss them away? *GASP* Mercy no! Those little green tomatoes make lip smacking good TomOlives.
