I bought a Power Pops cherry tomato plant today. I wanted some cherry tomato to grow inside. The description says this plant only grows 9" tall and 44" wide. It is suppose to have 55% more lycopene and 40% more carotenoids than standard tomatoes. Has anyone grown this one?

Fact is I gave up on Burpee anything many years ago, but if it works for you that's all that matters.( smile)

Carolyn, who wouldn't pay that much attention to the increased lycopene and carotinoids, since there have been varieties around for quite a few years that claim the same, such as Caro Rich, to name one. And the possible benefits of those are also determined by how you prepare them, whether fresh or cooked. Lots of info on that if you want to Google and if you do use words such as tomatoes and cancer prevention or similar words for your search.
