Red Pear / 10 seeds
(Lycopersicon esculentum)
Cocktail tomato
Variety description: The Red Pear tomato reaches a height of 120 cm and forms original, small, pear-shaped fruits that are 3 cm long and weigh around 30 grams.
The fruits form on the panicles in 6 - 9 pieces each, have a soft skin and are ideal for eating as they are, for sauces or for decorating salads or sandwiches. The origin of this variety can be traced back to the 18th century. They can be harvested from August to October.
Cultivation: The seeds for tomatoes can be sown from the beginning of January to the end of May. At 20° - 25°C, the seeds germinate after 5 - 14 days. For faster germination, you can pre-soak the seeds overnight in a damp cloth. Always pre-grow on the windowsill or in the greenhouse until mid-March. The tomato plants can only be put outside after the frost.
Care: The cultivation temperature is 18° - 20°C and should not be below 14°C at night. Loose, humus-rich and moist soil is suitable. Good, uniform soil is sufficient. Sunny and wind-protected locations are ideal for rapid and healthy growth.
