Notes

'Granadero' tomato (Solanum lycopersicum 'Granadero') is a vegetable for container growing, the food garden, and the pollinator garden. 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. This prolific plum tomato also draws bees. It sits low on the menu for rabbits.

Pairs well with Long Island Mammoth dill, Santo cilantro, and Cranberry bean.
