Egg Tomato 'Thai Pink Egg' / 'Pink Thai Egg'
- Product number: 293793
- Origin: South Asia
- Latin: Lycopersicon lycopersicum, or also L. esculentum
A color and shape commonly seen in Asia: oval (and yet not a juice tomato) and bright pink. This variety is popular throughout Thailand and has a rich and sweet taste. The fruits are 2-3 cm long, weigh about 30 g, and do not crack in irregular weather. A basket full of these tomatoes rivals a bouquet of pink roses!
Do you often grow your tomatoes in the same spot, for example in a greenhouse or cold frame? Then soil-borne diseases can develop, against which rootstocks are resistant. Grafting is therefore recommended:
For grafting tomatoes, use this variety: 291110 Tomato 'Landon'. As an aid, we recommend these grafting clips: 847520 Grafting clip 1.5 mm.
This group of tomatoes are a size between cherry tomatoes and beefsteak tomatoes: medium-sized, in other words. Each has its own unique character. The climbing varieties ripen later than the compact varieties and are therefore more successful under rain protection: a lean-to, greenhouse, or grow tunnel.
