Red Pear Tomato is a delightful heirloom, known for its sweet, juicy, pear-shaped fruits (about 5\u20136\u202fcm long and 2.5\u202fcm wide). Dating back to Colonial times, this indeterminate vine produces clusters of vibrant red, bite\u2011sized tomatoes that are perfect for snacking, salads, canning, and pickling.
