About Chinese Tea

The Chinese Tea tomato seeds were given to John Mathews from B.C., by a tomato farmer in China who claimed they were in his family for two generations. A prolific, indeterminate, regular-leaf tomato plant that yields a plentiful amount of pinkish, red, 2-inch, round tomatoes with red flesh. Fruit is well balanced in it’s sweet to acid ratio and finishes with a pronounced fruity sweetness. A wonderful salad tomato.
