Description: Indeterminate. Originally from the Hawkes Bay, but came to us from the Harrington Collection. This tomato produces huge flattish yellow fruit in large bunches, where the first fruit to set is the largest and they get smaller as they set. Healthy vine, fruit has lots of flavour and is a really great tomato for us here at Kōanga, in the Hawkes Bay. We love it!
Planting Instructions: Plant into trays late September and prick out when first leaves appear at 3cm diagonal spacing. Handle touching the leaves only. When leaves touch, transplant into 10cm deep pots or trays to 10cm diagonal spacing. When 10-15cm high transplant into garden 50cm spacings in rows. Two rows per 1m wide bed. Needs staking.
