Mixed Black Tomato Seeds may contain different dark-fruited varieties such as Black Krim, Black Prince, Black Cherry, Cherokee Purple, and Paul Robeson. The exact varieties depend on the seed mixture supplied. Check the packet description for the confirmed variety list.
Many dark tomato varieties naturally retain green pigments around the shoulders while developing purple, mahogany, or reddish-brown colors elsewhere. This is a normal characteristic of several black tomato types. Check fruit softness and its variety-specific color rather than waiting for the entire tomato to become uniformly dark.
Check each tomato for its expected mature color, slight softness, and easy separation from the vine. Since mixed collections can contain different varieties, cherry, medium-sized, and large tomatoes may mature at different times. Harvest each type when it reaches its characteristic ripe appearance and texture.
