Tomato Ice Seeds

Unit price perSolanum lycopersicum
Ice is an unusual Italian tomato producing pale, almost white fruits in clusters along vigorous climbing vines. As the tomatoes fully ripen they develop a soft yellow colour, signalling the point at which their flavour becomes particularly sweet.
An early-ripening variety, Ice begins producing relatively quickly and continues flowering and setting fruit over a long season, right through until frost in suitable climates. The sweet, delicately coloured fruits are excellent for fresh eating, salads and platters, particularly alongside red, green and darker tomato varieties.
Plants are indeterminate and continue growing throughout the season, so sturdy staking or trellising is recommended. Allow the fruit to develop its yellow cast before harvesting for the sweetest flavour.
Seed count: approximately 250–400 seeds per gram.
When to Plant (Australia)
Tropics: February–August
Subtropics: August–April

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.
Due to quarantine restrictions, TAS has an 800g limit per each seed variety and WA has a 10,000 seeds limit per variety.
