The name says it all—these very sweet red cherry-size fruits are borne in large clusters and produce over a long season. Plants are large and hardy, resistant to fusarium 1 and verticillium.
Cultivation: Start seeds inside 6 weeks before last frost date (or 8 weeks before expected transplanting date). Keep soil warm until emergence. Seeds will not germinate in cool soil and planting out too early may affect plant vigor. Harden off plants carefully before transplanting. Prepare fertile, well-drained soil. Transplant in late spring/summer (soil temperatures at least above 60°F) in a very warm and sunny location. Plant so that soil level is just below the lowest leaves. Train to a vertical support. Fertilize as needed. Too much nitrogen will produce lush foliage and few fruits.
