An attractive 'patio edible'. Compact, well-branched, virtually spineless plants will produce on average 15-20 fruits per plant. The 'baby'’ fruits will mature to tennis ball-size if left to mature. There are 3 different colours within the mix -shiny white, deep purple, and purple with white stripes.

Sowing Instructions

Sow February to May for growing indoors; March to April for growing outdoors. Sow seed on the surface of a good free draining, moist seed compost and cover with 6mm (¼in) layer of vermiculite or compost. Place in a propagator or seal container inside a polythene bag at a temperature of 18-21C (65-70F) until after germination which usually takes 10 -14 days.

Growing Instructions

It is not necessary to pinch out growth or sideshoot. Once first flowers have set, feed and water regularly with a high potash tomato feed.

Aftercare

Harvest regularly to promote further flowers and to extend the picking season.
