Description
(Indeterminate/75 Days)
Blue Berries is a captivating indigo tomato variety! Vigorous plants produce clusters with almost countless amounts of cherry tomatoes. The fruit are small, dark, and juicy with a well balanced flavor. They turn from green, to purple, to deep red with indigo blushed sides and shoulders when they are fully ripe. This cultivar does well in cooler areas, but explode with productivity once the weather heats up. They are loaded with anthocyanin which is the the same antioxidant that is found in blueberries giving them their distinct blue color!

Planting Instructions – Start tomato seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before last frost date. Do not plant out until 2 weeks after last frost. Tomato seeds require high soil temperatures for good germination rates. We highly recommend heat mats to ensure and speed up germination. Pot up to 3–4 inch pots when first true leaves develop (not cotyledon leaves). Harden off plants for 1-2 weeks in full sun before transplanting them outside (after last frost). Make sure to give tomato plants a lot of space for vigorous root and foliage growth.
