I finally tried one today - the black/red one was, honestly, amazing - the black/yellow - not so much. I have a red tomato plant growing next to this one and I had yellow cherry tomatoes last year (which I didn't like) so I'm wondering if there's some hybridizing going on here. @gko

I don't know yet - they're not quite ripe on the bottom so haven't picked any yet. I'll report back when I do!

This is my first time growing them and this is the first one to ripen, so all I know so far iz that tney're pretty. I'll keep you posted! I do know that the purple tomatoes are supposedly higher in antioxidants - bonus! #tomatotuesday #tomato #black #gyo
