The listing, NEXT TO LAST ONE FOR 2015 - 20 Seeds to Unique Tomato - African Togo - Small Pink - True 2 Type has ended.
This is a little unique tomato, that is one of my favorites, because I like unique things.
It's a little, (about 3 ounces) pink, slightly ruffled, and flattened pink tomato, that has a tendency, to have "babies", or sometimes, just a "belly button".
The babies, as seen in photos eight & nine (last 2 photos), are complete tomatoes, in miniature. They are joined to the "parent" by just a tiny point of connection.
They're quite fascinating.
Kids will love seeing a tomato with "babies" & "bellybuttons". Each tomato is unique.
They taste good too!
Because they are small, and have babies, they're best used in cooking, where they can be diced, or pureed.
The "parent" can be sliced, if you really want to use it that way.
The plants are short, about 2 feet tall, and about 2 feet wide, and are determinate, which means, that the plant will stop growing, put out fruit, then die on it's own, even before frost sets in.
Because it's determinate, it's perfect for succession planting. When it dies in late August, pull the plant out, and start a cold crop in it's place.
I like determinate tomatoes for that reason. They don't keep trying to fruit, until the frost kills them, and it's too late to start anything else.
These are true to type, meaning, you can save seeds to them, and the next generation, will be similar.
THIS WILL NOT HAVE A REPLACEMENT, IF LOST IN THE MAIL.
