Johnsons Tomato Tumbling Tom Red 20 Seeds

Tomato Tumbling Tom Red

Grow your own Tumbling Tom Red plants from seed. This variety is ideal for containers, from which it will tumble, bearing lots of large cherry size fruits. It is determinate and so requires no support. Best grown in a sunny position outdoors.

Sow the seeds indoors on a warm kitchen windowsill or a greenhouse. Sow the seeds in a pot around 0.5cm deep and cover with a thin layer of compost. Keep the pot well-watered and warm. An ideal temperature of 15 – 20C is perfect. The seedlings will start to appear after 7 – 15 days. When the seedlings are large enough to handle transplant them into individual pots. Keep them growing on in cooler but not cold conditions. If the plants get too cold they will stop growing and struggle to get going again.
