Notes
'Abe Lincoln Original Tomato' (Solanum lycopersicum 'Abe Lincoln Original Tomato') is a vegetable for food gardens and containers. It is typically grown as an annual. It cannot take cold, and a freeze will end its season. This plant likes full sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. Rabbits rarely make it their first choice. Butterflies and bees visit it, and it can reach about 96 inches tall, so give it a strong stake or cage.
