50-55
Round, medium, red 1 in./3 cm long x 1.25 in./3 cm wide
SD Perfect for “upside down” and traditional planters. Compact/mounded.
Pliable stems ship well, hold abundant fruit, won’t break in wind. Continues to put out branches with many trusses of split-resistant, sweet fruit.
Tumbler F 1 48-50
Round, medium, red 1.25 in./3 cm long
D This superior variety for baskets and containers has a graceful, cascading habit. Prolific, extra-early plants produce up to 6 lbs./2.7 kg of very sweet cherry tomatoes.
CURRANT Candyland Red
55-60
Round, small, red 0.5 in./1 cm long x 0.5 in./1 cm wide
I
Stays compact and tidy, so it won’t take over like other sprawling currants; easy to grow and earlier, too. Branched trusses make for accessible harvest and fruits detach without damage for more usable fruit. Very high yields of tiny, red fruit deliver very sweet flavor. Best in-ground. All-America Selections Winner.
