No summer garden is complete without America's favorite vegetable-luscious tomatoes. They are easy-to-grow, productive and have many uses. This is a widely adapted, all-purpose variety producing tasty fruits. Excellent for salads, juice, canning, relishes and cooking. Medium-size plant, determinate habit.

Sowing: Sow seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before last frost, keeping soil temperature in the mid-70's. Grow in full sun. Shift hardened transplants to garden shortly after last frost.
Care: Water regularly and fertilize when 6" (15cm) tall and again in mid-summer. Stake or cage to save space.
Harvest: Pick carefully when richly colored and firm, but before fruit begins to soften.
Your Health: Rich in calcium, iron and vitamins A and C.
