About the Patio Tomato

Patio tomatoes are the best, sturdy, bush type (determinate) growers for container gardens and small spaces. There are beefy, slicing, and cherry patio types available in Angelo’s Farm Market, specifically selected for home growers to be productive, disease resistant, and flavorful. Look for ‘Husky Red’ and ‘Husky Cherry’, ‘Patio’, and ‘Early Girl Bush’.

Care Notes

Plant in sunny, well-drained, nutrient rich soil or containers amended with organic matter like Petitti Planting Mix. Water well after planting; maintain 1” of water once a week throughout the growing season. Feed with a slow release fertilizer, Osmocote® or Garden-tone®. Follow label instructions. Mulch 2″ to suppress weeds, retain moisture and protect against extremes of soil temperature.
