Why you should grow ‘Verana Red’ tomato plants

Growing your own tomatoes isn’t just about saving money or reducing your carbon footprint, it allows you to try varieties that aren’t readily available in the supermarket. Despite their absolutely amazing taste, some of these varieties simply don’t lend themselves to commercial production.

Lovingly nurtured in the UK for 15 years, tomato ‘Veranda Red’ is one of the sweetest and tastiest tomatoes you can grow at home. The cherry-sized fruits ripen very early, around mid-July, so you won’t have to wait too long to enjoy your harvest. 

Extremely versatile, this beautiful plant is especially well suited to growing in patio containers, or as part of a decorative hanging basket display. Just find a sunny spot and watch it grow!
