Geranium Kiss

Season Overview

Description

A very unusual bush tomato that produces masses of medium-sized, very aromatic-spicy, fruity-sweet fruits. Not small enough to be called a cherry tomato, but not big enough to be considered a large tomato. The bush tomato 'Geranium Kiss' is ideal for growing in tubs or containers due to its terminated growth. The 60 cm tall plants need little space and still produce extremely richly branched flower panicles. The beautiful red fruit has a small tip or nipple that gives it a distinctive appearance. Tomatoes have a good texture and exceptional flavor and grow in clusters of 10 or more, weighing about 30 g each. However, it is the foliage that really stands out. It really does look like geranium. The plants showed tolerance to early blight and septoria.

Growing tips

Germination in 7-14 days at 18-22°C. Tomatoes require a lot of light, warmth, water and nutrients. They are grown from seed from March onwards on the windowsill. The seedlings should be planted deep, up to the first leaf base, so that the root system is enlarged by additional lateral roots. Unlike most other crops, tomatoes should always be planted in the same place. Under-sowing with low-growing plants is a good option. - Watering tomatoes: Depending on whether you are pre-sowing or direct sowing tomatoes, and depending on the location and variety, you will need to water your tomato plants differently often. Tomatoes can develop very deep roots that can even draw water from the groundwater. In this case, you hardly need to water them, if at all. Pay attention to the leaves, if they hang limp you should water your tomato plants. The soil dries out more quickly, especially in pots, raised beds and raised beds, so you will need to water them more often.
