Everglades Tomato aka Wild Florida Everglades Tomato is a unique and legendary Florida heirloom! The origin of this variety is unknow, but legend has it that they were found growing wild in the everglades and preserved by local Florida tomato enthusiasts. This is a sprawling, indeterminate, currant type that produces insane amounts of delicious tomatoes. This variety is extremely dependable! It is heat/drought tolerant, pest and disease resistant, and stands up to high humidity like no other. These plants survived and thrived through high 90’s temperatures and high humidity here in Central Florida. These tomatoes are also super tasty! They are sweet, zingy, and slightly acidic giving them a balanced flavor profile. Our whole family loves these tiny treats and eat them by the handful!

Planting Instructions – Start tomato seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before last frost date. Do not plant out until 2 weeks after last frost. Tomato seeds require high soil temperatures for good germination rates. We highly recommend heat mats to ensure and speed up germination. Pot up to 3–4 inch pots when first true leaves develop (not cotyledon leaves). Harden off plants for 1-2 weeks in full sun before transplanting them outside (after last frost). Make sure to give tomato plants a lot of space for vigorous root and foliage growth.
