I purchased 4 vibrant colors last year and planted them in a quadrant design. They were beautiful. Full blooms, tall sturdy stalks. I had about 80% sprout. Butterflies loved them. I wish I had photographed them, I certainly plan to this summer. Easy to grow, tossed into an old raised bed square. I do water weekly if needed.
Great seeds! I read that everglades tomatoes can take a long time to germinate, but I used some quality organic compost, and these seeds sprouted in only 5 days! I can't wait to see how many tomatoes we get from these!
Germinated Quick, Grew Fast, Already Getting Fruit
I think I jumped the gun on these lil guys. Started them at Christmas, two per pod in a six cylinder Aerogarden thinking they'd grow slower. I underestimated them, after pulling the runts out of each pod (11 out of 12 took) they pushed up to maturity and started popping fruit already in the first week of February! I am not complaining. I keep them well pruned and they seem quite happy bundled on my shelf. Come final thaw they'll join the maters outside and be bumping well into fall, fingers crossed and here's hoping I get a couple sample peppers in the meantime.
I have been growing this tomato variety for quite some time. The best compliment for this tomato is that I have several friends that beg me to start plants for them too, they have never found the Heirloom offered at retailers. The size of the fruit is wonderful for processing. It is an intermediate choice between the very meaty beefsteak and the very juicy varieties. The only drawback i have noted is that the shoulders sometimes do not fully ripen, but the size of the tomato is so wonderful that discarding some shoulder is not problematic. It is one variety that I ALWAYS plant while some other choices come and go.
