Toma Verde
Toma Verde Tomatillo seeds are easy to grow with prolific yields of early-maturing tomatillos. Compact heirloom plants from Toma Verde tomatillo seeds are hardy and adapt well to a variety of climates. Fruits average 5 cm (2") in diameter. Firm, uniform green fruit are wrapped in a papery husk that turns from green to tan and splits open as the fruit reaches full size and maturity. Fruits are tart when enjoyed fresh, and turn sweet when roasted. A Mexican favourite, try Toma Verde in savory sauces, snappy salsas, soups and dips. This plant works well in 5 gallon (or larger) containers, but it forms a large, somewhat sprawling bush so it benefits from some means of support like a tomato cage.

Product Info
How to grow
Timing: Sow indoors around the last frost date. Use bottom heat, and transplant seedlings out in warm weather, after tomatoes go out. Days to maturity: from transplant date.
Seeding: Sow seeds 5mm-1cm (1/4-1/2") deep in individual pots or trays. Space transplants 45-60cm (18-24") apart in rows 90-120cm (36-48") apart.
Growing: Ideal pH range: 6.0 to 6.5. Mix one cup of balanced organic fertilizer into the soil beneath each transplant. Provide support to keep drooping branches off the ground. Tomato cages work well for this. Pick tomatillos when they're still green. Remove the inedible husk, and rinse the fruits under cold running water to remove the sticky coating before using.
Seed specs: Usual seed life: 3 years.
