🍅 Growing Tips for Best Results
- Plant seedlings deeper than they were in the pot — tomatoes grow roots along buried stems
- Mulch well to retain moisture and reduce soil splash
- Water at the base of the plant to prevent disease
- Feed regularly with a balanced or tomato‑specific fertiliser
- Prune lightly to improve airflow and fruit production
Seed Saving Tip
Let a fully ripe fruit soften on the plant, scoop out the seeds, ferment briefly in water, then dry thoroughly. Store in a cool, dry place for future seasons.
Packed with care and grown from generations of family‑saved seed — Dandy Tomatoes Heirloom brings timeless flavour back to the garden.
