INDIGO ROSE TOMATO/20 seeds per pack

This variety shows a good resistance to fungal disease and blights.

The purple skin of the Indigo Rose boasts high levels of anthocyanins, disease fighting compounds that could help fight cancer, reduce inflammation, and slow the aging process.

The Indigo Rose cherry tomato has skin that is glossy and smooth, and the fruit has the archetypal cherry tomato shape and size, however its crown is covered by a unique deep-purple, burgundy glow. The lower half of the fruit, and areas of the tomato hidden by leaves, will be orange-red in color, as the purple pigment of anthocyanin is produced only in those areas that are exposed to sunlight.

The Indigo Rose is fragrant, with notes of paprika and smoke, and its flesh is both meaty and succulent, as its seeds burst in the mouth with acidity and the flesh counters with sweetness and depth.

Indigo Rose plants are open-pollinated, and produce a heavy crop whether they are planted in pots or a traditional garden.

Indigo Rose cherry tomatoes are great for fresh eating, but can also easily replace cherry tomatoes in any recipe, either hot or cold. Raw Indigo Rose cherry tomatoes are exemplary in salads and fresh salsas, or they can even be cooked and processed to make compotes and jams, or blanched and pureed for soups and granitas. Like other cherry tomato varieties, Indigo Rose cherry tomatoes pair wonderfully with citrus, especially lemon and lime, mild and bitter salad greens, olive oil, vinaigrettes, young and milky cheeses, eggs, cream, hazelnuts, pine nuts, avocados, basil, pineapple, mint, cilantro, and seafood, such as scallops, shrimp, crab and fish, or grilled and roasted meats and poultry.

It is an indeterminate variety, grows up to 180cm, takes 80 days to produce from seed to fruit.
