The Peacevine tomato is an American variety of cherry tomato that originated in the United States.

Alan Kapuler of Peace Seeds developed the Peacevine tomato in the mid-1970s. 

The Peacevine tomato is a de-hybridized variety of the Sweet 100 F1 tomato. 

It has small, round, red fruit that are 1.5 to 2 centimeters in diameter. 

The Peacevine tomato is high in vitamin C and gamma-butyric acid. 

It is an indeterminate variety, meaning it produces fruit over a long period of time.

Tomatoes are a relatively easy fruit to grow, and are a delicious summertime treat best enjoyed straight from the garden. Plant them in a sunny location once all danger of frost has passed. Remember to set up your Staking System right away, to avoid a headache later on, since proper support helps keep the plants healthy and producing. Tomatoes come in two types: determinate and indeterminate. Determinate are better known as “bush” or “patio” varieties, and have a set-size that they will grow to, making them ideal for shorter growing seasons or small spaces. Fruit on a determinate tomato plant sets and ripens all at once. Indeterminate varieties, such as cherry or grape tomatoes, will continue to grow and produce throughout the season; until the plant is eventually killed by frost or runs out of nutrients. Be sure to always supply tomatoes with added calcium to prevent Blossom End Rot. Consistently check water levels throughout the day, since tomato plants are very heavy drinkers and require a lot of water. The most common pest is the Tomato Hornworm, which can destroy your crops with its voracious appetite. Check plants regularly and pick any off by hand. Hornworms that have rice-looking eggs on them may be left alone; as this indicates the hornworm has become a host for parasitic wasp eggs, and it will eventually die.
