A new cherry tomato from the breeding program at Wild Mountain Seeds in Carbondale, Colorado. This pink anthocyanin-splashed (blue color tinged) cherry tomato produces wonderfully-flavored cherry tomatoes on disease resistant vines throughout the growing season. These cherries hold incredibly off the vine and resist cracking. So beautiful it's almost hard to eat them, but when you taste the incredible flavor you will understand the name “Perfection in Pink”. Wow your friends and customers with this new tomato!

A note on the price of these seeds: There is a lot of talk in the organic seed world about how to properly compensate for the vital work that small-scale, organic, open-pollinated plant breeders are doing. Because, of course, once a variety is released, another seed company can get ahold of it, grow it out, and sell it themselves. This is a complicated debate, but one way to put more money in the hands of the breeder is by pricing unique seeds at a premium upon their initial release. Casey put years into the development of these seeds, and the reality is, once you buy them, you can save the seeds yourself and keep growing these varieties for years to come. We work with all of our seed growers and breeders to set prices that they believe will fairly compensate them — and we believe the price of these tomato seeds is fair for Casey, for us, and for you. Thanks.
