Now, it could be that any good tomato would taste great months after the end of tomato season, but these were pretty special. I saved a few seeds, and will grow some more to see if I get the same thing this summer, grown in the ground."

I have to ask. If it is called Cherokee Green Grape, why would it be red?

Enquiring minds and all that, plus I'd really hate to miss something that has "incredible rich intense flavour!" (I'm not a big fan of GWR's because I cannot tell when they are ripe).
