Notes
'Nepal' tomato (Solanum lycopersicum 'Nepal') is a vegetable for food gardens and containers. It is typically grown as an annual. It is not cold-hardy and will not survive freezing temperatures. This plant likes full sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. The fruit is smooth and flavorful in late season. Rabbits tend to pass it by. Red blooms attract bees.
Pairs well with Teddy dill, Sweet Success cucumber, and Flashback Mix calendula.
