Grafted Blight-tolerant Outdoor Tomato Collection

Grafted blight-tolerant outdoor tomato collection

















In most seasons late (potato) blight damages or even kills outdoor tomatoes and spoils the fruits before you can harvest them. These plants resist blight and produce tasty fruit in a range of sizes from cherry to beefsteak.

They are also grafted on to rootstocks with resistance to soil-borne diseases, so you can grow them in the soil in a greenhouse or polytunnel. (Blight is usually less of a problem in greenhouses and tunnnels, but plants can still succumb in bad blight years and in areas with frequent wet, windy weather).

Total 6 organic plants, one of each of the following varieties:

Grafted Tomato ~ 232x Beefsteak
Grafted Tomato ~ Crimson Crush F1
Grafted Tomato ~ Dorada
Grafted Tomato ~ Mountain Magic F1
Grafted Tomato ~ Primavera
Grafted Tomato ~ Resi
