{"product_id":"cherry-roma-tomato","title":"Cherry Roma Tomato","description":"\u003cp\u003eCherry Roma is an extraordinarily productive heirloom grape tomato that produces masses of small, bright red tomatoes with some of the finest flavor we've ever tasted. In our 2026 trials, this unassuming little tomato was our favorite of nearly 70 varieties grown, combining exceptional sweetness with the rich, complex flavor that makes a truly memorable tomato.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlso known as Baby Roma, this variety has some impressive flavor \u003cem\u003ebona fides\u003c\/em\u003e. In a \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.cell.com\/current-biology\/fulltext\/S0960-9822(12)00408-3\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"The Chemical Interactions Underlying Tomato Flavor Preferences\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003e2012 study\u003c\/a\u003e published in \u003cem\u003eCurrent Biology\u003c\/em\u003e, researchers investigating the chemistry of tomato flavor found that Cherry Roma received the highest overall liking score in their consumer taste panels. Laboratory analysis also revealed exceptionally high concentrations of glucose and fructose, helping explain its remarkable sweetness. More than a decade later, our own growing trials left us equally impressed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe vigorous but surprisingly manageable plants reach just 4 feet tall in our trials, making Cherry Roma considerably less unruly than many other cherry tomato varieties. Plants set an astonishing abundance of miniature, Roma-shaped red tomatoes early in the season and continue producing steadily throughout the summer. Their wonderfully sweet flavor makes them nearly irresistible for fresh snacking, though they're equally delicious in salads, roasted vegetable dishes, and fresh pasta sauces. Harvests begin approximately 75 days after transplant. Each packet contains a minimum of 25 seeds.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cherry Roma","offers":[{"title":"Packet (25 Seeds)","offer_id":67590511460601,"sku":null,"price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0955\/4450\/files\/cherry-roma-tomato-seeds-1265753505.jpg?v=1793716328","url":"https:\/\/www.threshseed.com\/products\/cherry-roma-tomato","provider":"Thresh Seed Co.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
