Description
The Manitoba Tomato is an early producer, so it’s good for cooler climates with short growing seasons. Not to say that gardeners in warmer climates with long growing seasons can’t grow it. Basically, anyone in a grow zone that isn’t freezing or blazing for a couple of months can grow this tangy, juicy slicer. And it doesn’t even need a lot of garden space.
- Early producer—only 55 days
- Good for containers
- High yields
- Good for cooler climates
