Notes
'Burmese Sour Tomato' (Solanum lycopersicum 'Burmese Sour Tomato') is a vegetable for food gardens, containers, and borders. It is typically grown as an annual. Frost will kill it, so set it out only after the last frost in spring. Give it full sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. It is not a favorite of rabbits, though hungry rabbits will eat almost anything. Bees and butterflies visit the flowers.
Pairs well with Basil, Borage, Nasturtium, and Calendula.
