Description
Reviews

The Galapagos Wild Tomato stems, like the name already reveals, from the Galapagos Islands. As a wild tomato, it's pretty carefree and doesn't have to be pinched out. It reaches up to 2 metres in height and can also become that broad. If it's given plenty of space, it rewards you with innumerable small yellow fruits that have a sweet and sour taste.

It really is pretty robust and even tolerates slightly salty soils as, in its home, it grows near the coast and also has to manage the rough climate there. Also with rain, it gets along better than most cultivated tomatoes.
