Product information

    Tomato Alicante is a half hardy annual that produces medium sized fruits full of delicious flavour. This versatile variety will thieve in grow bags, soil, beds or under glass. This Tomato can also be grown in containers if you are limited on space. Height: 200cm (78”). Spread: 50cm (20”).Pot up, and grow tomato plants on in warm frost free conditions until large enough to plant outdoors. When all risk of frost has passed, gradually acclimatise them to outdoor conditions over a period of 7 to 10 days.Choose a sheltered position in full sun on fertile, reliably moist, well-drained soil, and transplant at a distance of 60cm (24") apart. Alternatively grow tomatoes in patio bags and containers in good quality compost such as John Innes No. 2. Drive a (5') cane into the soil adjacent to each plant to support them as they grow and tie each main stem to its support with soft garden twine.Water tomato plants frequently, to keep the compost evenly moist. Feed tomatoes regularly with a high potash plant food once the first truss of fruit has formed.Product Specifications:Position: Full SunHeight: 200cm (78”)Spread: 50cm (20”)Delivered with growing and care instructions.Images shown are for guidance only of the expected results from plants upon maturity.
