British bred, the Veranda Red has taken 15 years to perfect and shows good resistance to Fusarium, Verticillium and some blight. Compared to other dwarf tomato varieties, the Veranda Red has the most delicately sweet flavour, just like a vine tomato you would grow in a greenhouse. Early ripening from mid-July this tomato plant will produce up to 75 juicy, 12-16g fruits per plant.
SOWING INSTRUCTIONS: Sow in pots or in a propagator on a windowsill at approximately 18-21°C (65-70°F) using a good quality moist compost. Cover seeds with 6mm (¼in) of sieved compost until germination which can take 7-14 days.
GROWING INSTRUCTIONS: Transfer seedlings when large enough to handle into 11cm (4in) pots and grow on to fruiting on the windowsill. Alternatively, when the risk of frost has passed, you can plant in a window box or into 25cm (10in) pots on the patio.
