  • Tomato 'Cherokee Purple' is a well-loved heirloom variety known for its deep, rich flavor and unusual color. Believed to have originated from seeds passed down by the Cherokee people in the 1800s, this tomato carries a lot of history along with its outstanding taste. It grows as an indeterminate vine, meaning it keeps producing fruit throughout the season rather than all at once. With the right support, it becomes a lush, sprawling plant that fills garden spaces with beautiful, dusky-colored fruits.

    The fruits of Cherokee Purple are large, often weighing 10 to 12 ounces (280–340 g) or more, and have a slightly flattened, beefsteak shape. The skin is a dusky pinkish-purple with darker shoulders, and when sliced open, the flesh reveals a deep red interior with a hint of green near the seeds. The flavor is full-bodied — sweet, smoky, and a little earthy — making it a favorite for slicing, sandwiches, and fresh salads. Because of their soft texture, the tomatoes are best enjoyed soon after picking.

    Unlike many modern hybrids, Cherokee Purple takes a little patience to grow, often maturing a bit later in the season. The vines can stretch 6 to 8 feet tall and need sturdy cages or stakes to support the heavy fruits. The leaves are more traditional tomato leaves (not potato-like like some heirlooms), giving the plants a classic, leafy garden look as they fill out through the summer.

    Although it’s grown mainly for its outstanding fruit, Cherokee Purple also brings a soft, natural beauty to vegetable gardens with its tall, leafy vines and colorful harvest. Gardeners who grow it often say no other tomato compares when it comes to complex, rich flavor. In the right conditions, it rewards growers with some of the most memorable tomatoes of the season.


  • Needs full sun, at least 6 to 8 hours a day, for strong vines and rich fruit flavor. Plants grown in too much shade will produce fewer and less flavorful fruits.

    Water when the top inch of soil feels dry, aiming for deep, steady watering rather than frequent light watering. Consistent moisture helps prevent problems like cracking.

    Handles average outdoor humidity but needs good airflow around the leaves. Crowded conditions or wet leaves for too long can invite fungal diseases.

    Prefers warm temperatures between 70–85°F. Plant outside only after the danger of frost has passed and the soil has warmed up. While tomatoes are generally grown as annuals and can be cultivated in USDA zones 3 through 11, the key factor is the length of the growing season and the average last frost date in your specific area. In cooler zones like 3 and 4, gardeners often start seeds indoors and use season-extending techniques to ensure a successful harvest.

    Thrives in rich, well-draining soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH between 6.0 and 6.8. Adding compost or organic matter encourages strong vines and better fruit production.

    Feed every 4–6 weeks with a balanced fertilizer, or use one slightly higher in phosphorus to promote more flowers and fruits. Avoid heavy nitrogen feeding, which can create too much leafy growth.

    Ripe fruits are edible and safe, but the green parts of the plant (stems, leaves, and unripe fruits) are toxic if ingested. Keep plants where pets and small children can't reach them.

Most comfortable shoes, right out of the box!
Size: 8.5, Color: Cognac Napa Leather
Oh my! So, my ordering of shoes online has been hit or miss - 1/2 size too big or too small; too wide or not wide enough. Enter these Marc Joseph shoes… such a game changer. They fit like a glove, exceptionally comfortable, and easy to slip in and out of. I like them so much that I am shopping for another pair. So far, the size, quality, fit, feel, look, and comfort make this pair my dedicated first pick. Btw, I have been wearing them for six hours and they are still very comfortable! I highly recommend these shoes.

American sizing!
Size: XX-Large, Color: Oatmeal Heather, Pocket Description: No Pocket
These are great t-shirts and fantastic quality for the price. I bought them for my sons. The cotton is thick and nice-looking, the ivory colour is beautiful and it looks a lot more expensive than it is. I bought one for my eldest son and then bought two more (one for each son). The first one I bought has been getting a lot of wear for about three months. I wash it in the machine and line dry it because we line dry everything where we live. It has held up beautifully, has not shrunk, pilled or changed in any way. The only thing, and it is not a bad thing, per se, is that this is REAL American sizing. We are all tall with broad shoulders, and my eldest is a bit heavy. (Around 1m84 and 105 kg, I'm feeling too lazy to convert it online, but probably in the area of 6'1" or 2" and over 200 pounds.) So I ordered 2XL, which is what he wears in most inexpensive brands we get here. But, although he has been wearing it, as he needed cool-weather clothes, it is long in the sleeves and body and also wide. So I ordered him a second one in XL and he will set the XXL aside until he needs it, or gains weight. I would definitely recommend sizing down from what you usually order. But these are great! The Amazon interface seems to be prompting me to address functionality and cut. The cut is very good, although both large and long. I don't really know what they mean by functionality. It's a t-shirt, not ski wear or running shoes! The cotton fabric is nice and thick and soft. It's comfortable. It definitely works, as a garment. Don't know what else to say! (Just to let you know, I am a real human ordering from overseas. I am not paid or even receiving merchandise in return for this review, although I wouldn't say no if they offered.)

Great quality shirt, Recommend!
Size: X-Large, Color: Charcoal Heather, Pocket Description: No Pocket
This shirt is suprisingly comfortable, thick and fits very well. Not too short & not too long and is good quality fabric that streches with you. It's more than just a generic, thin long sleeve T-shirt. U can wear w/jeans or chinos, it's that nice. I paid 3x the price for designer brands w/logos that are not as nice. Price is right, too!
