Notes

'Spoon Tomato' tomato (Solanum lycopersicum 'Spoon Tomato') is a vegetable for food gardens, containers, and borders. 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. It is not a favorite of rabbits, though hungry rabbits will eat almost anything. Butterflies and bees visit the flowers.

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