Plant has grown like crazy. Can't wait to taste the tomatoes. Very healthy!
From Keelin | August 22, 2024
Cant seem to go wrong with there fruit and veggies. They plant very well. However the contaner it was in at the nursery was way to small leading to boarder line root bound and a very thirst plant with very dry soil in shipping. It rebounded fine and is chugging along.
From Ryan | August 13, 2024
This delicious juicy tomato is rather purple-ish in color. The plant arrived a day after being ordered in excellent condition, and is now covered with blossoms.

Wanted heirloom tomatoes this year!! Product arrived in clever shipping containers, they look robust. Was not able to plant immediately but seem to be doing okay and am hoping for the best tomato crop ever!!

I LOVE THIS COMPANY! They provide very fast shipping of very healthy plants delivered safely in unique packaging!

This is my third year buying Cherokee Purple tomato plants from here, and I'm very happy with my purchases. One year, one of the stems broke in shipping, but I didn't have any problems with customer service issuing a refund. The Cherokee Purple tomato isn't as big of a beef steak as the Striped German, which is my other favorite, but it's denser and has a deeper flavor. I like growing it as a nice contrast to the fruity notes of the Striped German.

The combination of Cherokee Purple tomatoes and the service from Growjoy make this a very nice transaction. I know I will get a great product and very good service.

LOVE Cherokee Purple tomatoes. When I discovered that I could not find them anywhere this year in Brevard County Florida I searched online. So lucky to have found GrowJoy! There are nearly 5 feet tall in only a few weeks! Gorgeous plants! Thank you GrowJoy!

healthy and sturdy and i am waiting for the tomatoes...it's not as hot in the bay area as other places so it takes longer
From janet | July 28, 2020
Got my 3 tomato plants 4 days after I placed my order. I am very impressed by the size and health of my plants and can't wait to get heirloom tomatoes so we can eat tomato sandwiches. Will order from GrowJoy again.

From Sharon M | May 23, 2018
This is the 2nd year I ordered this particular plant. It was very healthy, even more so than last year. The tomatoes it produces are wonderful! Will be ordering it again next year.
From Jody | May 18, 2018
My Cherokee purple tomato plants arrived well protected, undamaged and healthy. Plants I have ordered from other sources in the past would arrive wilted,and broken, Wish I could report on the quality of the fruit, but it is much to early for that. I plan to update my review when the harvest comes in.
From ANGELA | May 11, 2018

From Patricia | August 17, 2013
THESE PLANTS ARRIVED ON TIME AND LOOK TO BE THE HEALTHIEST HOPE THEY PRODUCE
From William | August 14, 2013
I was concerned about the shipping of live plants. I was not sure how they would do being tossed around in the back of a truck. My biggest concern was would they be viable enough to survive the trip and then to be transplanted into my Garden. Wow! They looked pretty good and within a couple of hours of being transplanted one would never have known they had been shipped. They look wonderful and I am really looking forward to our tomato crop this fall. Thanks for all you do.
From Robert | August 12, 2013
The Heirloom Tomato plants arrived in perfect condition. The packaging was impressive. Good purchase!

The Cherokee Purple Heirloom plants arrived healthy, and happy, already planted and can't wait till harvest time.
From Belinda | May 20, 2013
This will be our third year with GrowJoy Purple Cherokees. We've had great success with these plants. Lots of large, highly flavorful fruit. Bears even in the heat of an early Florida summer (it does shut down by July). Very pleased and looking forward to our new crop!
From Patrick | April 15, 2013
Very happy with the way my Cherokee Purples look. In about 4 weeks they already are about 6 feet tall and producing beautiful Tomatoes!
From Nick | October 26, 2012
looks great so far.
From anonymous | September 17, 2012
I live in the desert and love to garden. I prefer the Heirlooms for their taste. Haven't had much luck in the past-am trying this company now. Plant came in a very secure box and about a foot tall. It has been about 2 weeks and plant is thriving and growing like the proverbial weed. Crossing my fingers.
From Claudia | August 02, 2012
Our Cherokee Purple Tomato plants are big and beautiful but we don't have any ripe tomatoes yet because we planted these so late. We are very pleased so far.
From anonymous | July 09, 2012
