About this product
At last, a ‘Roma’ style plum tomato that’s blight resistant and can be grown outside in the UK! Solid, meaty flesh with few seeds and a rich, deep flavour you will love. Early and late blight resistant, so you’re sure to get fruit no matter how wet the summer weather gets!
Sow Feb/March for greenhouse growing (or April for outdoor growing) in a propagator on a windowsill or pots or trays in a greenhouse at 18-21ºC (64-70˚F) using a good quality compost. Cover seeds with 6mm compost (germination 7-14 days).
Transplant seedlings singly into 7.5cm (3in) pots. Grow on, finally planting into large pots, or direct into a greenhouse border; or outdoors 45cm (18in) apart when the risk of frost has passed. Support with cane and remove side shoots regularly. Feed regularly with tomato food.
