Notes
'Green Giant Tomato' (Solanum lycopersicum 'Green Giant Tomato') is a vegetable for food gardens, containers, and borders. It is typically grown as an annual. Frost will kill it, so set it out only after the last frost in spring. This plant likes full sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. Rabbits tend to pass it by. Its flowers attract butterflies and bees.
Pairs well with Basil, Borage, Nasturtium, and Calendula.
