Did you know that tomatoes were once nicknamed "wolf peaches?" And now we have an oxheart tomato that almost looks more like a peach than a tomato! The fruits colours are truly astounding. The large, heart-shaped fruits are peachy-yellow with flashes of marbled colour, and that colour goes all the way through if you slice them. The flavour is brilliant too. Midnight Sun is truly a tomato that has it all. However, the vigorous vines just seem to keep growing, and the tender stems will require you to keep your hand in with staking. Ideal for cooler climates.

Originally bred by renowned tomato breeder Karen Oliver

  • 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.
