Ideal for patio containers or hanging baskets, this versatile and very productive plant produces a prolific crop of mouth-watering bright red fruits! The sweet yet tangy fruits weigh approximately 15g and a single plant can produce 7-80 fruits by the end of August if seeds are sown in mid April. (Bush variety - very easy to grow as trusses do not require support and fruits without side shoots being removed.)
Tom says: We trial hundreds of new varieties every year in order to make sure only the very best varieties make it into our catalogue. The difference in flavours is incredible - from savoury cooking tomatoes to pure sweetness for snacking and every conceivable flavour combination in between, we have something for every taste bud and growing situation.
Growing Information
For greenhouse crops, sow Feb-April under glass 18-21°C (65-70°F). Grow in borders, large pots, or growing bags. For outdoor crops, sow April under glass 18-21°C (65-70°F). Grow in warm, sunny positions, allowing 45-60cm (1½-2') between plants. (16-18 weeks maturity).
Sowing Information
Using a good quality seed compost, sow seeds in propagator and cover with 6mm (1/4") compost. Place on a windowsill or in a greenhouse at approx. 18-21°C (65-70°C). Germination 4-7 days. Transfer seedlings individually into 7.5cm (3") pots and grow on. Plant out in greenhouse or outdoors in a sunny position 30-40cm (1-1 1/2';) apart or in 35cm (14") pots when frost risk has passed. Support plants with canes as fruit develops. No side shooting required. Feed regularly and do not allow to dry out.
