It is said to be a \u201cunique Zapotec Indian heirloom.&#8221; I cannot confirm or deny that. And the color is debatable as well. The vendor from whom I purchased seeds states that it is orange. Another vendor\/database describes it as &#8220;orange turning to red.&#8221; With my box of 120 Crayola crayons by my side, I name this color &#8220;red-orange.&#8221; Or maybe &#8220;orange-red.&#8221; Or possibly Sunset Orange. Or Bittersweet. Or Venetian Red&#8230;.<br \/>\nAnyway (don&#8217;t get me started on colors!)&#8230;the flavor and texture are good, solid currant-ish little sweet juicy bags of crunchy seeds. I do like that. The skins are thin enough to be pleasant. I think that the flavor of Matt&#8217;s Wild Cherry is stronger (that one is not a true currant, I believe), but this one is quite eatable.<br \/>\nI grew it in a 5 gallon pot, and the plant was less than 3 feet high, but with horizontal branches shooting out to at least 2 feet. Wow! So not a huge sprawling thing like Matt&#8217;s, but something that perhaps I should try in a hanging basket?<br \/>\nWhat else? Early and prolific. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":3412,"template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[8,17,35,42,12],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-3411","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-red-tomatoes","7":"product_cat-orange","8":"product_cat-cherry-grape","9":"product_cat-basket-tomatoes","10":"product_cat-bunny-hop-seeds","12":"first","13":"instock","14":"shipping-taxable","15":"purchasable","16":"product-type-simple"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/heritageseedmarket.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/3411","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/heritageseedmarket.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/heritageseedmarket.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/heritageseedmarket.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3412"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/heritageseedmarket.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3411"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/heritageseedmarket.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=3411"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/heritageseedmarket.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=3411"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/heritageseedmarket.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=3411"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
