A red cherry tomato with a mild flavor, produced abundantly on a compact plant.
What I like about Little Red Hiding Hood is its mild flavor and generous production. Its red cherry tomatoes offer a mild flavor with a slight touch of acidity that brings balance to the tasting experience.
Its compact 30–40 cm (12–16 in) plant fits easily in a 3–4 L pot, outdoors or indoors with minimal supplemental lighting.
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.
