3 or 6 Tomato Consuelo Plants – High Yield Sweet Cherry TomatoBring exceptional flavour to your garden with this pack of three Tomato Consuelo plants, supplied in 1 litre root balls and ready to plant out. Consuelo is a highly productive cherry tomato variety prized for its sweet, rich taste and attractive dark red-brown, elongated fruits. Each truss produces generous clusters of bite-sized tomatoes that are perfect for snacking straight from the vine, tossing into salads, or roasting for a deeper, caramelised flavour.This indeterminate (cordon) variety grows vigorously and benefits from support with a stake or string. Regular side-shooting and feeding will encourage a long, plentiful harvest throughout the summer months. Consuelo performs well in greenhouses, polytunnels, or in a warm, sheltered spot outdoors. With three established plants in this pack, you can look forward to an abundant supply of delicious cherry tomatoes from midsummer right through to autumn.What's Included:3 or 6 x Tomato Consuelo plants, each supplied in a 1 litre potCultural Information: Botanical Name: Solanum lycopersicum 'Consuelo' Common Names: Tomato Consuelo, Cherry Tomato Consuelo Classification: Tender Annual (Indeterminate / Cordon) Fully Grown Height: 150–200 cm (when trained and supported) Growth Habit: Upright, Vigorous Cordon – requires staking and side-shooting Fruit Type: Small, elongated cherry tomato with a dark red-brown skin Flavour Profile: Sweet, rich and aromatic Harvest Period: July to October Perfect For: Greenhouses, Polytunnels, Sheltered Sunny Borders, Large Containers, Grow Bags Planting Position: Full Sun, Warm and Sheltered Watering: Regular and consistent – avoid irregular watering to prevent fruit splitting Feeding: Feed with a high potash tomato fertiliser once fruits begin to set Soil: Rich, well-drained, moisture-retentive soil or quality potting compost Hardiness: Frost tender – plant out after all risk of frost has passed Growing Tips: Pinch out side shoots regularly to direct energy into fruit production.
