Notes

'Maxifort' tomato (Solanum lycopersicum 'Maxifort') is a vegetable for food gardens and containers. 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. Rabbits rarely make it their first choice. It is a vigorous rootstock for large fruits and long-season cropping, and bees visit it.

Pairs well with Salt and Pepper cucumber, Dukat dill, and Santo cilantro.
