Notes

'Pink Fang Tomato' tomato (Solanum lycopersicum 'Pink Fang Tomato') is a vegetable for food gardens, containers, and borders. It is typically grown as an annual. Frost will kill it, so set it out only after the last frost in spring. This plant likes full sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. Rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal. Its flowers attract butterflies and bees, and it tolerates some drought.

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