Vilma Houseplant Tomato

This is a very unusual micro dwarf tomato plant which can be grown indoors. I grew around 20 in my porch in 2024 and with care it could be grown on a sunny windowsill. 

The unique point about this variety is that it grows no more than 18 inches tall. It is very high yielding for such a small plant and indeed some of the trusses needed supporting with additional stakes (apart from the central one in the middle of the plant). You may need to undertake a little selective stem removal as the plant grows to enable you to reach under the leaves and pick the fruit. 
I don't eat tomatoes myself, but my neighbour tells me it is very sweet and was the sweetest of my red varieties of tomato in 2023. 

Because the plants don't grow as tall as conventional tomato plants, these can be sown as late as June, assuming they are kept under cover in a polytunnel, porch or other protected area thereafter. 

Price for 30 seeds.
