The highlights

  • As the name suggests - wonderfully sweet!
  • One seriously prolific fruiter
  • Brilliant in a puff pastry tomato tart
  • Harvest right from July to October

Description

  • An incredibly productive cherry tomato that provides bucketloads of – you guessed it – super sweet toms! Thin-skinned and larger than most cherry tomato varieties, the fruits of ‘Supersweet’ are perfect for salads (and popping straight from the vine…).
  • ‘Supersweet’ is a cordon (indeterminate) variety and will therefore need support. Something like a bamboo cane works perfectly well. These plants are best grown in a greenhouse or a sheltered, sunny spot outdoors.
  • A grafted hybrid (F1) variety, this plant is vigorous, healthier and less susceptible to pests and diseases. Add to that the sumptuous produce and you’re on to a real winner. Seriously, what’s not to like?
    • Grown by our nursery specialists under glass until they’re healthy young plants ready to go in your garden. Plant in May or June, then harvest from July all the way through to October.
    • This tomato is a great option to get your kids involved in the garden; it’s incredibly easy-going and simple to care for, and scientists (we) say that children are more likely to eat their veg if they’ve grown it themselves.

Good pest and disease resistance

Good pest and disease resistance

Our vegetable plug plants are bred for good pest and disease resistance, but may still be susceptible to common problems. The main pests and diseases that affect tomatoes are whitefly, aphids and tomato blight. It is important to look out for yellow and curling leaves or rotting fruit as a sign of these. You can prevent blight by keeping leaves away from the soil and also keeping the leaves as dry as possible. If you find whitefly or aphids on your plant try spraying them off with water. You can also plant marigolds which will attract natural predators such as ladybirds which will eat the pests.

Water regularly

Water regularly

Tomatoes are thirsty plants! Water the plants regularly to keep the ground constantly moist. If you are unsure, feel the soil with your hand. If it feels dry up to a fingernail deep then you can give the plant a watering. During very hot, dry spells you may have to water up to twice a day.

Full sun

Full sun

Tomatoes need to be planted in full sun.This should be somewhere where they will receive 6-8 hours of sunlight every day.

Any fertile, well-draining soil

Any fertile, well-draining soil

Thrives in any well-drained soil. If your soil is particularly clay-heavy and/or often becomes waterlogged then you can improve the drainage by adding in plenty of organic matter such as garden compost as well as some perlite or gravel.

Feed regularly

Feed regularly

When you first pot your plant, you can give it one serving of a balanced (meaning it has an equal amount of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium) plant feed. This helps the green parts of the plant to grow. When you start to see flowers emerge, you will then want to switch to a serving of high potash feed every week. Potash (or potassium) promotes flower and fruit growth and the tomato plant will want a lot of this. High potash feeds are very common and can come as a liquid feed.

Best plants you will ever get online

I have ordered plants from them twice this year. They arrived well packaged, on time and looked strong and healthy. I feel the staff from Roots plants deal with their plants and customers with passion and care. I can’t wait to order again, price is good as well.

Satisfied customer

Unlike other online sellers, this company are well ahead in the quality stakes. My plant arrived promptly as per their promise and the plant was much more established and healthy than I had expected. It’s the second time I have ordered from them and I have faith in their promise. Excellent service.
