Tomato - White Cherry

Solanum lycopersicum

White Cherry tomato seeds enable growers to cultivate a unique tomato type, distinguished for its pale hue and steady yield.

When grown, these seeds produce tomatoes that are light in colour, almost white, offering a subtle yet distinct flavour.

White Cherry tomatoes favour sunny, warm locations but can also thrive in cooler climates. Additionally, they've shown good resistance to many common tomato pests and diseases.

In the kitchen, White Cherry tomatoes can be used in salads, snacks, or as eye-catching garnishes. They are sources of vitamins A and C, as well as other essential nutrients.

For best results, these seeds should be sown in nutrient-dense soil and placed in an area that receives 6-8 hours of sunlight daily. As the plants develop, providing support can be beneficial. Regular watering is vital, aiming to keep the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged.
