From this family, 'Dwarf Snakebite' was selected and named by Amanda Fischer. Along with Patrina and Amanda, others involved with creating this variety were Craig LeHoullier, Michael Volk, Sherry Long, Damon Huck, Shawn Conant, Bill Minkey, Mike Dunton, and John Dunton. Each packet contains at least 20 seeds.

★★★★★ Outstanding!

I'll be growing this one every year from now on. Excellent production and flavor that will knock your socks off. Beautiful red tomato with strong production too. And most importantly of all, it's delicious! My favorite dwarf this year, and I grew 21 different kinds. Full old fashioned tomato flavor, tangy and sweet at the same time.
★★★★★ These tomatoes hit a homerun for me.

I grew two Dwarf Snakebite tomato plants for the first time in an Earthbox container. I prefer tomatoes with a full acidic tangy flavor. These tomatoes hit a homerun for me. They were very flavorful, tangy and firm without being too watery. My favorite , along with Dwarf Purple Heart, of the Dwarf Tomato Project varieties I've grown so far.
