Notes
'Damsel' tomato (Solanum lycopersicum 'Damsel') 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 rarely make it their first choice. Fruit is ready about 73 days to maturity, and the flowers attract bees.
Pairs well with Long Island Mammoth dill, Alpha calendula, and Itachi cucumber.
