Notes

'Carmello' tomato (Solanum lycopersicum 'Carmello') is a vegetable grown for large, juicy, full-flavored red fruit. It is typically grown as an annual. It is not cold-hardy and will not survive freezing temperatures. This plant likes full sun. The vigorous plants grow 4 to 6 feet tall and need staking for best crops. Fruit ripens in long clusters in 70 to 75 days, even in cooler seasons.

Pairs well with Lemon basil, Habanero habanero pepper, and French lavender.
