Notes
'Sweet Aperitif' tomato (Solanum lycopersicum 'Sweet Aperitif') is a vegetable for food gardens, containers, and pollinator 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. It is grown for snacking right off the plant, and the sweet cherry tomatoes come by the hundreds. The plant is indeterminate and ripens in 80 days.
Pairs well with Big Jim Hot Pepper, African Blue basil, and Eight Ball squash.
