Mini Cherry Tomato

Cherry tomato plants typically have a lifespan of 6 to 8 months, completing their growth and fruiting within one growing season. They are considered annual plants, meaning they die off after their life cycle is complete. They are also prolific producers, mature faster than standard tomatoes, and are relatively easy to cultivate. They are thought to be an intermediate genetic mix between wild currant-type tomatoes and domesticated garden tomatoes.
