Notes

'Thorburn's Lemon Blush Tomato' tomato (Solanum lycopersicum 'Thorburn's Lemon Blush 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. Its flowers attract butterflies and bees. Rabbits tend to nibble other plants first.

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