Fast Growing, Productive & Easy to Grow
Red Cherry Tomato seedlings are a productive addition to the home vegetable garden, producing clusters of classic red cherry tomatoes throughout the growing season. Cherry tomatoes grow rapidly, so providing good support, full sun and consistent moisture will help plants establish strongly and produce healthy fruit.
Seedling Height
Approximate seedling height including the root system.
Planting Red Cherry Tomatoes
Plant seedlings a little deeper than normal to provide extra stability and help anchor the developing plants.
It can also be useful to plant tomatoes into slightly raised mounds. This helps improve drainage and can minimise conditions that may encourage fungi to develop in the soil.
Cherry tomatoes grow rapidly, so plants should be staked or otherwise supported as they develop.
How to Plant
Growing & Care Guide
Watering
Keep the soil consistently moist. Water around the base of the plant rather than over the leaves to help reduce the risk of fungal leaf diseases.
Mulching
Plants benefit from light mulching around the base to help maintain soil moisture.
Air Circulation
Some excess leaf growth can be trimmed off as the plant develops to promote better air circulation and support healthier fruit.
Supporting Growth
Cherry tomatoes grow rapidly. Stake plants to provide support and help keep developing growth upright.
