Our Cherry Roma tomato seeds offer gardeners a unique blend of a small, cherry size tomato with the classic shape and taste of the Roma variety.
These seeds produce tomatoes that are elongated like a Roma but smaller in size, akin to a cherry tomato. They have a vibrant red colour and a robust flavour that combines the sweetness of cherry tomatoes with the meaty texture of Romas, making them especially versatile.
In Australia, Cherry Roma tomatoes are known for their adaptability. They can flourish across a range of conditions, from warmer regions to cooler areas, given proper care. They also exhibit resistance to certain common tomato pests and diseases, ensuring a consistent harvest.
When it comes to culinary applications, Cherry Roma tomatoes are a standout. Their size and shape make them great for salads, salsas, and roasting. Their balanced flavour profile ensures they're equally at home in sauces or eaten fresh. Nutritionally, they offer a good dose of vitamins A and C, as well as essential minerals.
For best growth, these seeds should be sown in well-draining, nutrient-enriched soil. A location with 6-8 hours of sunlight daily is ideal. As the plants grow, consider using stakes for support, especially when the fruit begins to set. Watering should be regular, keeping the soil consistently moist but avoiding oversaturation.
