No more staking, stooping, and searching for Tomatoes in the garden — Tumbling Tom puts big handfuls of luscious Cherries right at eye level! This lovely “edible ornamental” is just perfect for hanging baskets, windowboxes, and tall containers where you want to show off the color and vigor of your favorite Tomato. And now it’s available in bright golden yellow!
This plant has a weeping habit, so it dangles about 2 feet over the sides of containers, for all the world as pretty as any spreading Petunia! First it sets attractive white blooms, then masses of small, bright yellow 1- to 2-inch round fruits. Grow it just as you would any other Tomato, but don’t worry about stakes, cages, root nematode, and other pests of the soil! Tumbling Tom is above it all!
A great choice for small space gardens (where it can hang above the “ground” Tomatoes!), urban balconies, and any other bright sunny setting, Tumbling Tom is well-branched, about 6 to 8 inches wide, and vigorously productive. Plant 2 or 3 in a 10- or 12-inch basket and you’ll be rolling in Tomatoes before you know it! And be sure to plant red Tumbling Tom for contrast!
Start seeds indoors 5 to 6 weeks before the last frost date. Plant outdoors when danger of frost is past and night temperatures consistently remain above 55 degrees F. If an unexpected late frost is forecasted, protect young plants with plastic sheeting or other cover. Set plants 6 inches apart. Pkt is 20 seeds.
I value your Heirloom Seeds, especially your Yellow Tomatoes, Golden Beets, and Yellow Peppers.
Thank you for a wonderful 😊 experience.
I am buying more for next season.
