Tomato Black Plum Seeds

Black Plum is a productive heirloom indeterminate (vining) tomato producing clusters of small, oval to plum-shaped fruits with deep mahogany-brown skin and rich red flesh. The tomatoes are firm and meaty with a dense texture and a complex, sweet-savoury flavour typical of dark-skinned varieties.

Excellent both fresh and cooked, Black Plum really shines when roasted, slow-cooked, or used in sauces, where its depth of flavour intensifies. A reliable and generous cropper, it’s an excellent choice for gardeners who love rich, full-bodied tomatoes.

  • During tomato season, we eat tomatoes morning, noon, and night, as they bring us so much joy after months of nurturing. We eat them like sweets, in pasta dishes, or as part of a simple tomato salad with flaky sea salt.

    We also preserve tomatoes in various ways for the year ahead, making sauces, jams, and chutneys. Fresh tomatoes can be frozen whole for later use in pasta sauces, stews, soups, and casseroles.
