Notes

'Indigo Rose' tomato (Solanum lycopersicum 'Indigo Rose') is a vegetable for food gardens, containers, and pollinator gardens. It is typically grown as an annual. It cannot take cold, and a freeze will end its season. This plant likes full sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. Fruit is ready about 75 days after planting, and the seed is open-pollinated. Bees visit the flowers. Rabbits rarely make it their first choice.

Pairs well with Teddy dill, Alpha calendula, and Patio Snacker cucumber.
