Notes
'Moskvich' tomato (Solanum lycopersicum 'Moskvich') is a vegetable for food gardens and containers. 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. Gardeners count it among the most appealing extra-early tomatoes, and bees visit its flowers. Rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal.
Pairs well with Gimlet cucumber, Long Island Mammoth dill, and Flashback Mix calendula.
