Kevin's Large Black Cherry Tomato Seeds grow round, deeply flavorful cherry tomatoes with an exceptional sweet-and-sour fruity intensity unusual for a cherry type. Their mahogany purple-black skin makes them a standout in salads and grilled kebabs. This is an exclusive, indeterminate variety that originated in Southern Indiana, propagated for many years by a friend's father, Kevin.
