Cherokee Purple Heart 

90 days, indeterminate — The regular leaf plants are upright and well-branched with good leaf coverage. Good yields. The medium sized (up to twelve ounces) fruit are nearly identical to 'Cherokee Purple' in coloration and flavor except that they are heart-shaped. Very tasty.

Discovered by Rock Angier (NC AN R) of North Carolina in 2006 growing among his 'Cherokee Purple' plants. After a few years growing it out and observing that it remained true-to-type, Mr. Angier contacted Craig LeHoullier, the introducer of 'Cherokee Purple', about this variant. At Craig's suggestion, Rock sent us seeds in 2011.

After several years of grow-outs, we observed this variety to be completely stable and introduced it to the gardening public in 2013. Each packet contains approximately 20 seeds.
