Notes

'Caiman' tomato (Solanum lycopersicum 'Caiman') is a vegetable for food gardens, containers, and pollinator gardens. 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. Rabbits tend to nibble other plants first. It matures in 76 days, and bees visit its flowers.

Pairs well with Giant of Italy parsley, Fernleaf dill, and Sashimi cucumber.
