History

  • Solanum cheesmannii.
  • From Underwood Gardens catalog: "This is the true wild Galapagos Island tomato variety, collected by Sarah Darwin, great-granddaughter of (naturalist) Charles Darwin. These tomatoes are found growing right along the seafront, just feet from the ocean in rocky, exposed and almost soilless conditions. "
  • The red-fruited variety named Sara's Galapagos is a variety thought to be introduced to the Galapagos Islands from the mainland, and it is not this species.
