Description
One of the hottest food trends! Black tomatoes are not only stunning on the plate, they’re stunning on your palate. Ordinary red supermarket tomatoes literally pale in comparison to the deep, exceedingly rich flavor of Dark Galaxy. The name comes from the mottled skin, which evokes a nighttime sky. A perfect small round salad tomato with a highlyy desirable low-acid sweetness. Indeterminate. Photo courtesy of Baker Creek Heirloom Seed.

Dark Galaxy tomatoes
Just got the seeds started, and not all of them sprouted. Won't know the results until they ripen, end of summer. Can hardly wait.
Unusual
Looks like it might be a good tomatoe.And I love tomatoes.
Love flavor of "black" tomatoes
Something to change things up in between other more “common” tomatoes
