The tomatoes are really small, only the size of a 1p piece, and very

variety they might be?


From the description, possibly these?

That doesn't say that they're F1 hybrids, but if they are and you grow
from their seeds, the offspring might vary wildly from the parents ...


I'm fairly sure they are black cherry, not black opal, they aren't dark
enough for those, but they crop so well and taste so good, it's worth
having a go with the seeds for next year
