Tomato, Sweet Orange II Cherry

Confession time: These sweet orange cherry tomatoes are so good that they usually don't make it inside...because we eat them right off the vine!!!  We just can't help ourselves.  If you've grown them in the past, you know what we're talking about! 

The flavor is very sweet (they were actually bred for higher sugar levels), fruity and delicious.  Might we also add that if you grow purple basil around these cherry tomatoes, the pops of orange and purple all summer are totally insta-worthy but also 2/3rd's of a caprese salad!  We could keep listing the benefits of growing purple basil and orange cherry tomatoes but we think you should just try it.  Oh, did we mention we also sell purple basil starts? And that the pollinators love this section of the garden too? 

Mic drop, we think this open-pollinated variety is wayyy better than the ever-popular hybrid "Sungold".  Only one way for you to find out... 

These plants are exceptionally productive.  Crack resistant.  Produces vigorous vines that require staking (cage, trellis or bamboo pole has worked well for us) as they can easily grow up to 8' tall in fertile soil!  They produce all summer long, making them our most fave sweet cherry tomato to date!
