Notes
'Wisconsin 55' 55 tomato (Solanum lycopersicum 'Wisconsin 55') is a vegetable for food gardens and containers. It is typically grown as an annual. It cannot take cold, and a freeze will end its season. This plant likes full sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. It is a flavorful slicer, and bees visit the flowers. Rabbits tend to nibble other plants first.
Pairs well with Salad Bush cucumber, Fern Leaf dill, and Flashback Mix calendula.
