Matt's Wild Cherry[edit]
I've been adding references and info to the page, but have been unable to confirm that the variety of wild tomato that seed companies are selling in North America and England, usually called 'Matt's Wild Cherry' (collected from Mexico), is a variety of Solanum pimpinellifolium. I've seen a variety of pictures and some of them have fruit that seems too large and much more like a cherry tomato. Perhaps what's being sold is sometimes Solanum pimpinellifolium, which has fruit no larger than 1cm in diameter, and sometimes a hydrid between a Solanum pimpinellifolium and a Solanum lycopersicum. Hopefully someone can shed light on this. Until then I've decided not to add info about Matt's Wild Cherry into the article. Nihola (talk) 06:44, 29 January 2011 (UTC)
Spoon Tomato[edit]
It appears to me that this "Spoon Tomato" variety, found at http://www.tradewindsfruit.com/spoon-tomato-seeds, would be an actual representation of Solanum pimpinellifolium. Just thought I'd add this for the consideration of whoever is in charge of this page. I'm not knowledgeable enough about plant taxonomy to feel comfortable editing the page itself. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nightowl22366 (talk • contribs) 11:25, 15 December 2015 (UTC)
Heirloom[edit]
How can a wild tomato - which was never cultivated - be called an "heirloom tomato"? 203.80.61.102 (talk) 19:07, 16 October 2017 (UTC)
I'm not too sure if you can classify this by the pictures as an heirloom[edit]
also in the classification there's no nightshade. Further almost any heirloom tomato especially of this what's the weather like for so selenium classification should have a warning that it cannot be eaten unless it's fully ripe I hope that helps. 209.171.85.193 (talk) 14:36, 1 July 2023 (UTC)
