Cherokee Tiger Black Pear (I grew this one in I think 2016; if I remember right, it had chartreuse foliage. I got it from Marsha's 2016 SASE SEED OFFER on tomatoville.com)

And these from Tatiana's TOMATObase:
Cherokee Purple, Potato Leaf
Cherokee (not related to Cherokee Purple)
Cherokee Red Potato Leaf
Cherokee Purple Heart
Cherokee Purple, Pink
Cherokee Green Grape




I don't know if any of them are 100% stable, but there's also these varieties that I believe @JohnnyRock has/had been breeding/growing:

Cherokee Yellow Perfection Peach
Cherokee Yellow Red
Cherokee Yellow Red Pear
Cherokee Yellow Yellow Pear
Cherokee Yellow
Golden Cherokee (I'm not sure if this is the same as Cherokee Golden)

Of those, I've successfully grown Cherokee Yellow Perfection Peach (which was really awesome), and Cherokee Yellow Red Pear. They were both tasty.

For me, Cherokee Yellow Perfection Peach was fuzzy and peach/apricot-colored. It looked about like Wapsipinicon Peach, but it tasted totally different. It was possibly the sweetest tomato I've ever grown (even compared to sweet cherry tomatoes). I believe the taste was very peach-like (and the acidity level wasn't high). The fruits were probably somewhat bigger than apricots.

For me, Cherokee Yellow Red Pear was kind of a Roma-type paste shape for me (smaller and less prolific than Roma, though). It was sweet and fruity. The taste was very good. Mine turned out to be red. I don't think it was stable at the time.

This is super helpful information and I appreciate your time posting a reply. Do you by chance have any of these available for stamps in exchange?

Few years ago I got seeds of a Cherokee Purple variegated leaves one and the fruits and plant is very similar to CP, the only difference is color difference in the leaves. I think I still have some seeds if I can find them, please let me know if you are interested.
