Notes
'Honey Bee' tomato (Solanum lycopersicum 'Honey Bee') is a vegetable for food gardens, containers, 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. Rabbits rarely make it their first choice. Bees visit the flowers, and the fruit matures in 60 days.
Pairs well with Fern Leaf dill, Santo cilantro, and Mojito cucumber.
