Yesterday I had another tomato starting to blush, a Black Cherry! Yay! Have you eaten the cherry roma yet, Pomona? Tell us how it tasted!

Hi Hilde,
The Cherry Romas have been sweet. The plant is incredibly prolific. I did bag some blossoms so I'm hoping to save some seeds, there aren't many seeds in each grape.
We now are also harvesting Snow White Cherry tomatoes, I've only tried the first couple, they are tangy. DD has been eating most of what's harvested. And the plant looks like it may not make it for the event, here's hoping.
We also just started harvesting some pineapple tomatillos, am letting the husks completely dry before eating though. I think this are also considered to be ground cherries?
