Notes

'Black from Tula Tomato' (Solanum lycopersicum 'Black from Tula Tomato') is a vegetable for food gardens, containers, and borders. 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. Bees and butterflies visit the flowers, and the plants can reach 84 inches tall, so give them a sturdy support. Rabbits tend to nibble other plants first.

Pairs well with Basil, Nasturtium, Calendula, and Borage.
