Notes
'Blue Tonic' tomato (Solanum lycopersicum 'Blue Tonic') is a vegetable for food gardens, containers, and pollinator gardens. 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 and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. It sits low on the menu for rabbits. Bees visit its flowers, and it grows rapidly.
Pairs well with Fernleaf dill, Flashback Mix calendula, and Quick Snack cucumber.
