Notes
'Gardener’s Delight' tomato (Solanum lycopersicum 'Gardener’s Delight') is a vegetable for containers, food gardens, and pollinator gardens. It is typically grown as an annual. It is tender to cold, and the first hard frost will kill it. This plant likes full sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. It is not a favorite of rabbits, though hungry rabbits will eat almost anything. Bees visit the flowers, and this open-pollinated tomato matures in 65 days.
Pairs well with Patio Snacker cucumber, Teddy dill, and Alpha calendula.
