Notes
'Roadster' tomato (Solanum lycopersicum 'Roadster') 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. This hybrid bush grows fast, draws bees, and matures in 68 days. Rabbits tend to nibble other plants first.
Pairs well with Marketer cucumber, Long Island Mammoth dill, and Alpha calendula.
