**Ornamental Cherry Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum var. cerasiforme)**
Also known as ornamental tomato or cherry tomato, this plant belongs to the Solanaceae family and is native to Peru. It is a perennial herb typically grown as an annual in cultivation. The plant can reach a height of 80 to 120 cm, with a bushy and fluffy appearance. Its fruits are ellipsoid in shape, ranging from 2 to 2.5 cm in diameter, and come in vibrant colors such as orange-red, pink, or bright yellow, with a glossy finish. The fruiting period usually spans from July to October.
**Harvesting Tips**
The parts harvested include branches bearing cherry tomatoes and their berries. When the fruits have fully changed color, select branches with even fruit distribution and cut them off. The best time for harvesting is in the early evening when temperatures are cooler, which helps maintain quality. After cutting, store the harvested material in a well-ventilated area and cool it as quickly as possible to preserve freshness.
**Grading Standards**
Before packaging, the harvested fruits must be graded based on the typical characteristics of the variety, ensuring no contamination by foreign materials and that they are suitable for use. A primary fruit cluster usually has about 14 fruits, while secondary clusters may contain around 12, and smaller ones about 10. The number of fruits on the same level of the branch should not vary beyond the standard limit.
**Packaging Guidelines**
Cherry tomatoes of the same grade and variety should be bundled individually and labeled with the variety name. They are then placed into corrugated cardboard boxes with ventilation holes to ensure proper air circulation and prevent moisture buildup.
**Storage Conditions**
Once cut, the fruiting branches should be stored in a controlled environment with a relative humidity of 60% to 70% and a temperature between 3°C and 5°C. These conditions help maintain the visual appeal and quality of the product.
**Shelf Life**
With proper storage, the decorative effect of the cherry tomato branches can last between 7 to 10 days, making them ideal for seasonal displays and events.
**Garden Use**
Cherry tomatoes are highly valued for their beauty and vibrant colors, often used in floral arrangements and ornamental gardens. Their small size and colorful appearance make them a popular choice for both indoor and outdoor decoration.
**Sales and Handling Tips**
Cherry tomato cuts are most commonly available between June and October. During handling and display, care must be taken to avoid damaging the fruits, as they can easily detach under external pressure. Proper handling ensures that the product remains intact and visually appealing for consumers.
