Notes

'Blush Tiger Tomato' tomato (Solanum lycopersicum 'Blush Tiger Tomato') is a vegetable for food gardens, containers, and borders. It is typically grown as an annual. It is tender to cold, and the first hard frost will kill it. This plant likes full sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. Rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal. Bees and butterflies visit the flowers, and the tall vines do best with a sturdy support.

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