    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    Unique glistening purple-black fruit grow in large clusters. An arresting sight, very decorative for pots and mingled with calendulas in the kitchen garden. Good looking and good for you, too, as it was bred for high levels of antioxidant anthocyanins. Pick when the bottom of the tomato turns red for the best flavor.
