Description How to Grow Delivery Reviews

The Sweetest Tomato Duo Collection is two delicious tomato cultivars; Sweet Aperitif and Sungold. Sweet Aperitif is a red-skinned cherry tomato that produces fantastic yields of mini-sized fruits, that are great for salads, and side dishes. They have a high sugar content and just the right amount of acidity, which combine well for a sweet, but refreshing flavour. Sungold crops profusely from early summer to late autumn and can be grown in the greenhouse, or outdoors. It has cascading trusses of bitesized, thin-skinned golden coloured tomatoes that have an exceptionally high sugar content, making them super sweet and juicy.

Plant height and spread is seasonal therefore we list by pot size rather than a defined plant size. The height and spread of the plant delivered will vary depending on the season, meaning arrival images are an indication only.

6 Peat-Free Tomato Postiplug Plants (3 of each variety) (KF5014)

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.

Tie the main stems to their supports and remove any sideshoots that develop between the main stem and the leaf stems. Once the plant has produced 6 or 7 trusses, pinch out the top of the main stem. This process of "sideshooting" and "stopping" will increase the availability of light and air movement around the developing fruit, and focus the plants energy on producing a good crop of high quality tomatoes. Tomatoes can be harvested as they ripen from July to October.

Van Meuwen strives to ensure that all its plants are delivered to you in the perfect condition for planting. While the majority of our nursery plants cope well with slight delays in intransit, sadly, the time it takes to deliver to certain locations in the UK means that we can't guarantee this for some of our smaller plug products and tender bedding and vegetable lines, which do not respond well to the extra journey time. So regretfully while we offer the majority of our live plant offering nationwide, we are unable to ship plugs, begging plants and tender vegetable plants to the following areas: HS, IV41-IV49, IV51, IV55-56, KW15-KW17, PA34, PA41-48, PA60-PA78, PA80, PH40-PH44, TR21-TR24, ZE1-ZE3.
