Days to Maturity: 80 from transplant

Indeterminate

The Purple Boy hybrid offers a remarkable blend of the beloved heirloom flavor found in traditional purple tomatoes with the added benefit of superior disease resistance. This exceptional purple tomato variety effortlessly withstands conditions that typically challenge the Cherokee Purple, thanks to its resilience against nematodes, verticillium wilt, Fusarium wilt, and tobacco mosaic virus. Gardeners can now enjoy the distinctive deep purple fruits and their healthful attributes throughout the summer.

Each fruit of this purple tomato is a marvel of taste and texture, combining juicy richness with a robust tomato tang that far surpasses the offerings found in supermarkets. The deep purple antioxidants present in these tomatoes are not only visually striking but also carry potential health benefits, including possible anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer properties.

As an indeterminate tomato plant, Purple Boy continuously produces new purple tomatoes across the growing season. Adequate staking and occasional pruning are recommended to support the plant's vigorous growth and to maximize fruit size. Limiting the number of flowers allows for the development of fewer, but significantly larger, fruits—a testament to the variety's adaptability and the gardener's skill.

Cultivating Purple Boy purple tomatoes in your home garden promises not just a bounty of visually stunning and genetically unmodified fruits but also an opportunity to explore the nutritional advantages they offer. From their rich, purple pigment to the high levels of antioxidants, these purple tomatoes are ideal for those seeking both flavor and health benefits in their garden produce.
