Who said dwarf tomatoes all have small fruits? Certainly not us! And, after trying Zoe's Sweet tomatoes, nor will you! Apart from its yummy, medium to large-sized, ribbed fruits this dwarf beefsteak tomato has a few other stand-out characteristics. It will grow somewhat taller than most dwarf tomato varieties for a start. And don't let its lime-green foliage fool you into thinking it's 'hungry.' That's part of its genetics and part of the reason for its vigour. Mixing ornamentals and veggies together in your garden? Use that foliage colour to create contrast.

  • Growing Information

    How to Sow

    Tomatoes are best sown in trays about 6-8 weeks prior to the last frost. Sow seeds about 5mm deep and keep the soil temperature to about 20 celcius until germination. Once the plants have grown their second leaves the seedlings can be transplanted into larger individual pots. Keep the tomato seedlings in a warm sunny position and maintain moisture levels. When planting out, position the plants so that soil covers the entire stem up to the first leaves. This will increase root development and ensure a healthy strong plant. Plants should be placed in full sun and rich soil.

    How to Harvest

    Tomatoes ripened on the vine will be ready once they show their mature colour. The fruits can also be squeezed and should yield slightly when ripe. If frost occurs and temperatures drop late in the season all tomatoes can be picked. Tomatoes that do not ripen on the vine can be ripened indoors by being placed in a warm place out or direct sun.

    Only one of these seeds turned out to be a tomato. I’m not sure what the others are but they aren’t like anything I’ve seen before
