Questions & Comments
they sound like an itialian tomato thats what mine look like but we love tomatoes alot at my house so i bid thanks for listing
okay they are called and itialian tomato tree i have about 33 growing right now and can always use more and if you use mircle grow they will get about 8 foot tall use it once a week mine already have tennis ball sized tomatoes on them but i will be planting lots more as we eat alot i just saw the poictures of the plant
These are called pruden's purple(however, depending on where you are some people may call them Italian Tomato Trees, not sure about that though. I just know what I bought. ). I plant three varieties. The prudens purple, mortgage lifters and brandywine.
The mortgage lifters actually put on 2lb fruits I have some of those heirlooms up for auction as well..
And yes they can get even taller than 8' if your conditions are right. I use weekly sprays of compost tea( I use nothing but homemade organic fertilizers) Typically these get to be about 4' tall for the average gardener.
I looked up the Italian Tomato tree, and they are very similar looking plants. But yours puts on a red tomato the prudens purple puts on a pinkish purple fruit. I might be interested in some of your seeds later lol I might start growing a new variety next year
