Notes
'Nova' tomato (Solanum lycopersicum 'Nova') is a vegetable for container gardens and food gardens. 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. Rabbits rarely make it their first choice. This tomato is grown for its orange grape fruit, and bees visit the blooms.
Pairs well with Teddy dill, Sweet Success cucumber, and Flashback Mix calendula.
