Description
Old Faithful
Matina is a classic salad tomato with a sweet aroma and a juicy texture. With a fruit weight of 60 g, it is suitable for fresh consumption in salads or with mozzarella and basil. Due to its early ripening, a good early yield can be achieved. The further course of the harvest depends on the weather. The plant’s special potato-leaf foliage and lush fruit set a special accent in the garden. Outdoor tomatoes can be grown unprotected outdoors. They should be regularly thinned out and tied up. A sufficient supply of nutrients increases the yield.
