Notes

'Geronimo' tomato (Solanum lycopersicum 'Geronimo') is a vegetable for containers and the food garden. 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 has good flavor and tolerates mildew, and bees visit the flowers. It is not a favorite of rabbits, though hungry rabbits will eat almost anything.

Pairs well with Fern Leaf dill, Santo cilantro, and Striped Armenian cucumber.
