Customer Reviews (4.8 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Aurora ★★★★★

These are perfect for making small-batch sauce—the low moisture means less simmering time. I harvested a good handful from each dwarf plant, and even a few split ones dried nicely on the vine.

Owen ★★★★★

I’m really pleased with how these hold on the vine—it gives me time to pick them as they fully ripen without rushing. For a dwarf plant, the yield is impressive and the low-moisture fruit dries down perfectly for sauces.

Olivia X. ★★★★★

These little tomatoes dry beautifully right on the vine, and the low moisture content means I barely had to babysit them in the dehydrator. Planted them in a big pot on the patio and they stayed nice and compact, just as described.
