Product Information
This heavy cropping, super-sweet, large cherry tomato is a top choice for both the beginner and experienced vegetable grower. An indeterminate variety (needs support), it can be reliably grown in a greenhouse or outdoors, producing and abundance of long trailing vines with 10-14 fruits per truss all summer long – quite literally, a gardener’s delight!
Cropping from early summer right into October, ‘Gardener’s Delight’ will reward with super-sweet, richly flavoured fruits with red, glossy skins – perfect for salads and sandwiches as well as for cooking. Try roasting whole trusses with fruit still attached for an attractive addition to pizzas and other savoury dishes – the deliciously sweet flavour will intensify as they cook.
Easy to grow, plant your jumbo plugs into moist but well-drained, fertile soil or compost in large pots, growbags or border in the greenhouse, or positioned outside in a sunny, sheltered position once the frosts are over. All they need is a sturdy support and some pinching out of sets to encourage a tall, upright central stem.
What Is Supplied
Top Tips
- This variety does well outside and can be grown in large patio pots with support to keep branches off the ground.
- Side shoots do not need to be pinched but doing so will encourage a more upright habit and produce higher yields and larger fruit.
Care Information
- Tomatoes are best grown in a growing bags or large pots of compost where they can be fed and watered regularly.
- Plant up into their containers from April onwards.
- Plant 2-3 plants per growing bag or 1 per pot, burying up to the first set of true leaves.
- Leggy plants can be buried deeper as the underground stems will root.
- Water in well and add your plant label.
- Grow on for a couple of weeks before placing outside after hardening off. Cover plants with horticultural fleece on any unexpectedly cold nights.
- As plants grow, keep them watered every day and feed once a week with a tomato feed. Support the plants as they get taller with a stake (or leave them to tumble in a basket), tying in the stems.
- Pick tomatoes when they are fully ripe.
