Mexico Midget Tomato Seeds | Heirloom
$2.25 – $7.99
(Indeterminate/60-70 days)
Don’t let the ordinary appearance fool you, Mexico Midget Tomatoes are anything but ordinary! They’re a rare heirloom tomato that came from Chico California gardener Barney Laman. These tomatoes originated in Mexico, but were acquired by chance by Laman’s brother, who was a Texas truck driver. This is a hyper productive variety, producing hundreds of bright red, tiny (½ – ¾ inch), cherry tomatoes that have an explosive flavor. This is easily one of the best cherry tomato varieties and one of our personal favorites!

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.
