Tomato Tropic Seeds
$3.90
Unit price perSolanum lycopersicum
Tropic is a robust tomato producing large, round red fruits to approximately 10 cm across. The firm, substantial fruits have a rich tomato flavour and are excellent for slicing, sandwiches and salads as well as cooking, sauces and preserving.
Developed for warm, humid growing conditions, Tropic is particularly useful in subtropical and tropical gardens where heat, humidity and disease pressure can make tomato growing challenging. It is a disease-hardy variety with vigorous growth and reliable production under demanding conditions.
Plants are indeterminate and continue growing and setting fruit throughout the season. The vigorous climbing vines benefit from sturdy staking or trellising to support the large fruits and keep foliage and fruit clear of the ground.
Seed count: approximately 250–400 seeds per gram. Approximately 40 seeds per packet.
When to Plant (Australia)
Tropics: February–August
Subtropics: August–April
Mild climates: August–December
Cold climates: September–December, after frost risk has passed
Planting / Sowing
Sow approximately 5 mm deep into seed-raising mix or directly where conditions are warm. In cooler climates, seed can be started indoors approximately five weeks before transplanting after the last frost. Best soil temperature for germination is approximately 16–35°C.
Space plants approximately 40–60 cm apart with 60–150 cm between rows. Grow in full sun in fertile, well-drained soil and provide sturdy staking or trellising for the climbing vines. Water at soil level where possible and avoid waterlogged conditions.
Maturity: approximately 80–95 days.
Not available for WA.
Due to quarantine restrictions, TAS has an 800g limit per each seed variety.
