Notes

'Estamino' tomato (Solanum lycopersicum 'Estamino') is a vegetable for food gardens, containers, and pollinator gardens. It is typically grown as an annual. It is not cold-hardy and will not survive freezing temperatures. This plant likes full sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. It grows at a rapid rate and draws bees to its flowers. Rabbits tend to pass it by.

Pairs well with Fern Leaf dill, Alpha calendula, and Striped Armenian cucumber.
