I am work on a project for children that requires the tomato plants not be taller than 30" at maturity, 24" would be great. Pots are 12" in diameter and 8" deep.

I will be growing them in Concord, and in Oakland, Ca..

Cherry tomatoes are great for small spaces. We're trying yellow pears this year in planter boxes and if you don't stake them, they pretty well hang. Kids can reach them, they tend to put out lots of fruit and even if they get a bit tall, there's always fruit on the bottom. Good luck!

I would never do round cherries. Choking hazard big time.
