Medium Tomato Seeds

Medium tomatoes: the perfect balance of flavour and yield

Medium-fruited varieties are the most practical choice for any vegetable garden or balcony. They produce plenty of fruit, ripen earlier than large-fruited types and are perfect for salads, sauces and cooking.

Stand-out varieties:

  • San Marzano: the classic Italian sauce tomato.
  • Moneymaker and Ideal: dependable, highly productive varieties.
  • Chocolate heart-shaped tomato, Warsaw Raspberry and Pineapple, for unusual colours and flavours.
  • Red Pear in the shape of a pear and Trapezitsa, for an eye-catching look on the table.

Growing

Sow in seed trays in late winter and plant out once the frosts have passed. Most varieties need support and the removal of side shoots. You will find detailed instructions in our article on tomato types and how to grow them.
