The Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) 'Gardener's Delight' is one of the most beloved and well-known cherry tomatoes in the world. This very old and time-tested variety has been cultivated for decades and owes its popularity to one decisive characteristic: excellent flavor. Gardener's Delight is considered by many to be the benchmark among cherry tomatoes and is a staple in both hobby gardens and professional growers.
Gardeners Delight is known for its intensely aromatic, sweet-fresh tomato flavor. The small, round fruits have just the right balance of sweetness and acidity, making this tomato exceptionally versatile. The variety is often cited as one of the tastiest cherry tomatoes ever developed.
The fruits are about 2.5 to 4 cm in diameter and grow in densely packed clusters. Thanks to its reliable fruit set and long harvest period, Gardeners Delight is considered a truly high-yielding tomato.

Gardeners Delight is a vine tomato (indeterminate), meaning it continues to grow throughout the season, continuously producing new flower clusters and fruits. The plants reach a height of approximately 150 to 180 cm and therefore require support, such as stakes, spirals, or twine.
Cultivation advice:
Sowing: February – March (indoors or in a greenhouse)
Plant out: From mid-May outdoors, after the risk of night frost
Location: Sunny, warm and sheltered
Soil: Nutritious, airy and well-drained

Gardeners Delight is exceptionally flexible in cultivation and thrives in both greenhouses and open ground in sunny locations. Its vigorous growth and reliable yield make this variety suitable for larger pots on balconies or patios, provided it receives sufficient nutrients and water.
