Skilfully grafted using the latest techniques, there are so many benefits to grafted plants, one of the key reasons is each plant can produce up to 75% more fruit, with more fruiting trusses per plant! These will fruit earlier and longer, and the yield per plant is much greater than ordinary tomatoes! They just seem to keep on going well into the Autumn, and don't run out of steam like some do. Excellent resistance to pests and disease, make Grafted Tomatoes so easy to grow even if you have no experience, these will thrive to produce you with an abundance of fresh, tasty tomatoes! Superb for growing outside, no greenhouse heating is required! They can also be grown in pots perfect for small gardens, patios, or balconies!
