If you read the blog below, you will find several references to a super sweet orange cherry and/or grape tomato. I expect to see something interesting come from it in the near future. It is very high carotene and brix in the range of 12 to 15.

I think Doug's super-sweet orange cherry is Zima, sold at Costco.
http://www.bizjournals.com/sacrament...dland-lab.html This link is a Monsanto/Semenis promo piece, but the Doug Heath/Zima paragraph is on page 3. If you haven't tried Zima, you should. It is an excellent tasting orange cherry available here mid-winter. IMO not as good as Sungold, but more widely available.
