The tomato with a name like the villian in a superhero movie, she’s actually a rare beauty! Plum shaped fruits that look just like a large olive, become tinged with orange as they ripen on long trusses laden with up to 12 fruits. These tasty heirloom tomatoes have a slight crunch to them even when very ripe that adds texture in salads and means they store for ages.

Surface sow seeds in small pots of moist, peat-free compost and just cover. Tomatoes are fast growing plants, so best started in mid to late spring. They need heat to germinate, and benefit from lots of light, so supplement both if necessary. Germination takes place within 1-2 weeks.
Once plants reach roughly 20cm in height, start feeding with quarter strength organic feed. Pot on when roots are visible through drainage holes and plant out after last frost. Will require support. Remove side shoots and lower 50% of foliage to maintain straight, healthy plants. Though tomatoes can be grown outside, they will perform better for longer in a polytunnel or greenhouse.
