Details
All-America Selection award winner! Candyland Red is a currant tomato that is smaller in size than regular cherries and the plant itself has a tidier habit than other currant-type plants, making fruits easier to harvest. Fruits set on the outside of the plants in gorgeous trusses and have a super sweet, rich flavor. Their small size makes them great for snacking and salads. Originally a hybrid, these seeds were saved from the F1 hybrid grow-out and are considered an unstable F2 variety.
