Tomato Lizzano F1 is the most blight tolerant variety available. It is a semi-determinate type producing abundant yields of tasty, high quality, bright red, baby cherry-sized fruits. It is a vigorous variety with a compact, uniform trailing habit.
Tomato Lizzano trusses hang down all sides of a container or hanging basket and as a tumbling bush variety it doesn't require side shoots pinching out. It is perfect in a hanging basket or pot especially if garden space is at a premium.
Keep picking tomatoes to encourage further fruits to grow & ripen. There is nothing better than eating a sun warmed tomato straight from the vine.

| How to Sow: | Sow seeds thinly in seed trays of seed & potting compost or 2-3 seeds in small pots and cover lightly with a little compost. Firm compost gently and water carefully.
