I grew this in a 20 gallon pot. It was a strong plant, prolific, but shorter than what I expected.\r\n\r\nNo pests, no diseases. \r\n\r\nAs for the taste, totally bland. Nothing here for me to recommend at all. I\'ll grow a plant once, to try it. This one had it\'s chance. You\'ll never see it in my garden again. I consider it wasted time, water, effort. But now I know.

Really good taste - rich flavor for a tiny tomato. I grew it in pots, so it didn't get as big or produce as much as it would have in the garden.

This is the best cherry tomato I have ever eaten. The plant is tremendously productive and grows large. But if you only have space for one cherry tomato, make this the one. It is delicious, rich, complex and sweet.
