Notes

'Bloody Butcher' tomato (Solanum lycopersicum 'Bloody Butcher') is a vegetable for the food garden, grown for fresh eating and canning. It is typically grown as an annual. Frost will kill it, so set it out only after the last frost in spring. This plant likes full sun. The four ounce fruits are red inside and out and hang in clusters of 5 to 9. It ripens early, about 55 days, and keeps producing into fall.

Pairs well with Lemon basil, Pepper, and French lavender.
