Tomato Peardrops

Peardrops is the perfect tomato for anyone without a garden – a decorative trailing variety bred specifically for pots, boxes and above all hanging baskets. What makes Peardrops special? The gracefully cascading shoots are covered with small, bright yellow, pear-shaped cherry tomatoes with a wonderfully sweet flavour. A well-laden basket is a snacking garden and an eye-catcher in one – yielding an impressive 2–3 kg per plant. The biggest plus for beginners: Peardrops needs neither pruning nor staking. The two jobs that trip up most tomato novices simply do not apply. Just plant, water, feed and snack. Key to success in containers: a pot of at least 5–10 litres, a sunny spot and regular watering – hanging baskets dry out faster than beds. A slow-release fertiliser or weekly liquid feed keeps the trusses coming. Who is this variety for? Balcony and patio gardeners, beginners and families with children. If you want to snack straight from the hanging basket as you walk past, Peardrops is the one.
