 A WILD-CHERRY TOMATO OF THE URUBAMBA VALLEY 



Wild tomatoes of the cherry type are very abundant in the lower Urubamba Valley about 

 Santa Ana at an elevation of approximately 3,000 feet. The color of the fruits is deep red 

 and the taste very agreeable. The tomatoes cultivated by the Indians are of the same type 

 and the fruits not much larger (natural size).
