Flowerbox Collection 10 Compact Varieties

  • Product number: 295930
  • Origin: South America
  • Latin: Lycopersicon

This collection contains 10 of the most beautiful tomatoes with a compact growth habit. The advantages at a glance:
1) Growing these varieties in pots and containers is very successful and can be done without support…
2) Compact varieties usually ripen their fruits early. This means an early harvest and less chance of diseases.
3) Growing in open ground is easy because no suckering is needed, and usually one sturdy stake is sufficient.
Although the composition varies, this year it will likely include the varieties: Azure, Balkonzauber, Coldset, Gold Rush, Indian Moon, Iris, Lycoprea, Morkovnyi (Silvery Fir Tree), Sarajeva M-17, and Tigerette Cherry.

Do you often grow your tomatoes in the same place, for example in a greenhouse (or mini-greenhouse)? Then diseases can develop in the soil, which rootstocks are resistant to, and in which case grafting is recommended:
for grafting tomatoes, use this variety: 291110 Tomato 'Landon'. As an aid, we recommend these grafting clips: 847520 Grafting clip 1.5 mm.

The assortment of tomatoes we offer is enormous and runs into the hundreds! In an attempt to keep it all somewhat manageable for our customers, we create interesting collections around relevant themes. The varieties we use for this vary and sometimes do not even appear in our regular assortment (which we offer separately).
