Tomato Bellandine F1 Hybrid Seeds
Tomato Bellandine F1 Hybrid Seeds produce distinctive long, plum-shaped tomatoes with excellent colour and flavour. Also known as Horn of the Andes, this impressive variety produces substantial fruits weighing approximately 180–200g each.
The fleshy fruits contain very few seeds, making Bellandine particularly appealing for slicing and cooking. The combination of its unusual elongated shape, rich colour, and excellent flavour makes it an interesting alternative to conventional plum tomatoes.

How to Grow Tomato Bellandine F1 Hybrid Seeds

Sow seeds approximately 0.5cm deep in pots and cover with a thin layer of compost.
Keep the compost well watered and warm. An ideal germination temperature is approximately 15–20°C.
Seedlings should begin to appear after approximately 7–15 days.
Once the seedlings are large enough to handle, carefully transplant them into individual pots.
Continue growing the young plants in cooler conditions, but do not allow them to become cold. If tomato seedlings become too cold, their growth can stop and they may struggle to get going strongly again.
Continue potting plants on as required before moving them to their final growing position once conditions are suitable.
