Where are tomatoes imported from?
Cherry tomatoes are small tomatoes. They grow on tomato plants.
Varieties include, but not limited to, cherry, plum, pear,
strawberry, grape shapes.
Colours come in red, orange, yellow, brown, whitish-yellow,
green, striped. Some varieties bear in clusters, others do not.
Most "cherry" (which just describes a small-fruited tomato variety,
like Yellow Pear, Snow White, Black Cherry, Ilidi). "Currant"
tomatoes are smaller yet, and closer to the wild forms of
tomatoes.
Tomato plants are indeterminate (bears fruit over the entire
season instead of 'determinate' - bears everything during one
period), and tend to be big plants. There are exceptions. There are
some hybrid varieties that fit nicely in patio containers.
Tomato plants are perennial (live for years and years) in their
native Mexico/South American regions.
