A small red tomato with a mild, distinctly sweet flavor.

What I noticed about Birdie Red is its mild, sweet flavor, with very little acidity. Its small red cherry tomatoes are crisp and very juicy, with a pleasant freshness and noticeable but subtle aromas.

Its determinate plant, reaching about 20–30 cm in height, easily finds a place in a small pot, on a balcony, in a planter, or grown indoors with a little supplemental light.

Its rugose foliage also adds a distinctive touch to this compact little plant, which can find a place wherever every inch of space counts.

And if you get the urge to start seeds, sow it indoors whenever you like. It’s an excellent way to be patient.

Every variety has its own personality. The best tomato isn’t the one that pleases everyone, but the one that finds its place in your garden, your kitchen, and your habits.

You can share its seeds within your community: our seeds are reproducible.
