Tomato Seeds - Red Currant

Product Description

Rob says: Solanum pimpernelifolium produces tiny fruits, hence the name. Its a different species from your common garden tomato & its hardly changed since it was found growing wild on a Peruvian beach in 1707. The plants are very disease resistant, & can tolerate cooler temperatures. Each tiny tomato is crisp, & has a really intense, sweet/tart flavour. Good in salads, or straight from the plant. These tomatoes will reward you with fruit every day. Grow them as you would any cordon tomato & pinch out the side shoots (you can leave a few side shoots if you forget). They may be confused as they were found growing on a beach on the floor, but that's because they were wild. To get the best from the plants when they are trained up a cane, they will grow to around 1.5-2m in a greenhouse.
