Belgium breeder, Lieven David's new cherry tomato (Sungold f1 x Juliet f1) x (Sungold f1 & Black Cherry). Lieven selected the parents for their vigor & taste. He writes, "...so their offspring makes huge plants that keep cranking out sweet fruity cherries in diffferent sizes; red & orange (orange is surprisingly dominant); I've been selecting seedlings for … leaf fragrance! If they have that fruit-like foliage, like the parent Sungold f1, it seems to go together with fruit taste." We will be growing these for the first time this year at Flanders Bay Farm (these are "breeder" seeds from Lieven David. Lieven is accomplishing some very exciting breeding work. You can read about his work on increasing the genetic diversity of the vegetables we eat, by visiting his site where he takes you on tour of his "De Lustof (Garden of Eden) "

This looks like a fun cherry to grow. I split a pack of seed with Lored. I plan on growing out several of these to see what comes up..I'll save seeds.
