Notes

'Carolina Gold' tomato (Solanum lycopersicum 'Carolina Gold') 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. Rabbits tend to pass it by. Bees visit the flowers, and the bush grows at a rapid rate.

Pairs well with Teddy dill, Alpha calendula, and Mexican Sour Gherkin cucumber.
