1 Tumbling Tom Yellow Cherry Tomato Plant, Patio Trailing, Outdoor Garden Ready, 2 Litre Root Ball

Tumbling Tom Yellow Cherry Tomato Plant – Patio Trailing, Outdoor Garden Ready, 2 Litre Root Ball

Tumbling Tom Yellow is a compact, trailing cherry tomato variety perfectly suited to hanging baskets, patio containers and window boxes. This easy-to-grow plant produces an abundance of sweet, bright yellow cherry tomatoes throughout the summer months, making it an excellent choice for small gardens and balconies where space is limited. Its naturally cascading habit creates an attractive display of green foliage and vibrant yellow fruit, adding both visual appeal and a fresh harvest to your outdoor space.

Unlike many tomato varieties, Tumbling Tom Yellow requires no staking, pinching out or complicated training. Simply plant into a generously sized container or hanging basket, water regularly and enjoy a plentiful crop of bite-sized, sweet-flavoured tomatoes. This variety is determinate, meaning fruit tends to ripen over a concentrated period – ideal for enjoying generous harvests in one go or for use in salads, snacking and cooking.

Supplied as a well-established plant in a 2 litre root ball, ready to be planted out into its final position once all risk of frost has passed.
