When you’re looking at seed catalogs or browsing the store shelves, look for these key words to help you pick your best tomato!

Growth habit: indeterminate

Indeterminate tomato varieties grow very tall - over 6’, with some as tall as 20’! Because they grow so tall, these tomato plants will require heavy-duty staking or a strong trellis to support the plants. These are best suited to growing in the ground or in large raised beds, but are too large to be grown in pots. They will produce tomatoes throughout the season, so are a perfect choice if you want fresh tomatoes to enjoy until frost.

Seed type: hybrid

Hybrid tomatoes are created by crossing different varieties of tomatoes to create a plant with specific qualities from the parent plants, such as size, flavor, and even disease resistance. The seed saved from hybrid tomatoes will not produce the same tomato plants that they were saved from.

Tomato type: cherry or salad

‘Black Cherry, ‘Sun Gold’ and ‘Sweet Million’ sound like they'd be a great addition to your garden!
