If you are short on space and still want to grow tomatoes, you’ll get a lot of bang for your buck with Sweet Million or another of the small fruited tomato varieties. Start the seed indoors in March and set out the little plants when threat of frost is past. They will need to be staked as they grow and once they start producing, you’ll be rewarded by clusters of sweet fruit. Often they keep right on growing until fall. A plant or two can be easily covered to protect from early frost and you can enjoy these tasty little tomatoes after the others have died off. This is another plant option that is quite suitable for container gardening.
The Sweet Million variety can be purchased online at Stokes Seeds.
