April is perfect for sowing summer fruiting tomatoes – the flavour when warmed by the sun is out of this world:  all three are happy outdoors or can be grown in a tomato house   This collection contains one packet each of...

Marglobe ~ smooth, tasty, firm fruits.  This heirloom variety copes well with damp summers. lovely eaten fresh in salads and sandwiches.  Makes super preserves too (12 seeds)

Tigerella ~ famous for its outstanding flavour and for the beautiful stripy fruits this is a fabulous salad tomato and a firm favourite of many (not just Monty Don) (12 seeds)                                                       

Zukertraube ~ enjoy large trusses laden with tasty red cherry toms - perfect for munching on (ours rarely get as far as the salad bowl), the name translates as ‘sugar grape’ so look forward to intensely sweet fruit with a hint of acidity.  This variety was in our October ‘ flavours not to miss out on’  feature (12 seeds).
