Description
- Roma-type plum tomato
- Rich flavour, delicious in sauces or eaten fresh
- Good blight resistance
- Grows well in a greenhouse or outdoors
This top-quality, blight-resistant British-bred ‘Roma’ style tomato grows well in a greenhouse or outdoors producing heavy harvests of tasty plum tomatoes with few seeds, meaty texture and intense rich flavour. It’s superb in sauces and equally delicious eaten fresh in salads.
Sow indoors
February-April: Level fill a module tray with seed compost firming with the base of another tray. Water well with a fine rose. Sow seeds individually and lightly cover with vermiculite. Place in a propagator at 18-21°C (65-70°F) or cover tray with cling film and leave in a warm room. Keep moist.
Grow on
May: When shoots appear, remove cling film. Keep seedlings in a light position, but shade from direct sunlight. When plants have 4 leaves transplant to 8cm pots of potting compost. Grow coolly and steadily at a minimum temperature of 15°C (60°F).
Plant out
Gradually accustom plants to outdoor conditions for 2-3 weeks before planting out when temperatures exceed 10°C (50°F). Transfer to large pots (minimum 30cm/12in), grow bags, or in a border 45cm (18in) apart either in a greenhouse or in a sunny, sheltered spot outside.
Tips
Tie stems to a support as they grow and remove side shoots. Feed and water regularly and remember to ventilate your greenhouse on warm days. Pinch out the growing tip once it reaches the top of the support, allowing a maximum of 6 fruiting trusses.
