Notes

'Large Barred Boar Tomato' tomato (Solanum lycopersicum 'Large Barred Boar Tomato') is a vegetable for containers, borders, and food gardens. It is typically grown as an annual. It is tender to cold, and the first hard frost will kill it. Give it full sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. Rabbits rarely make it their first choice. Bees and butterflies visit the flowers.

Pairs well with Basil, Borage, Calendula, and Parsley.
