Notes
'Sweetheart Cherry Tomato' tomato (Solanum lycopersicum 'Sweetheart Cherry Tomato') is a vegetable for container, food garden, and border use. 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. Its flowers attract butterflies and bees. It is not a favorite of rabbits, though hungry rabbits will eat almost anything.
Pairs well with Basil, Calendula, Borage, and Nasturtium.
