Tomato 'Costoluto Fiorentino'
- Perfect for Pots
A medium-sized, delicious, juicy Italian variety of tomato, which grows and crops very reliably here
Another favourite from our trials. It's more prolific and easier to grow than other larger fruited kinds. Really best under cover, or against a south facing wall.
Please note, illustrated packets are being introduced gradually over the coming months, availability may vary.
On occasion we may need to send you an alternative variety to the one shown, which will be selected by our growing team to ensure its suitability. It will be of equal or greater value to the original. Please contact our customer service team if there are any problems.
