  • Hugely productive- masses of trusses
  • No pinching-out required
  • Great salad or cooking tomato

This vigorous variety is so prolific; producing handfuls of tasty fruit that are so easy to harvest through mid- to late summer.

Montello’s versatility knows no bounds- both in the garden and in the kitchen! Grow in containers, baskets or grow-bags indoors or out and this neat bush variety gets to 90cm in length producing masses of trusses; you don’t even need to pinch out side-shoots.

Your crop of tomatoes are delicious enough to eat straight from the plant or added to salads; they also reduce well when added to the pan, making excellent rich Bolognese sauces and soups.

Features

  • F1 Hybrids are crossed varieties that are exceptionally vigorous and longer lasting
  • Good in containers and pots
  • Good in hanging baskets
  • Will flower well in full sun

Just a bit concerned seeds are so small but as I haven't grown tomatoes from seed before I may be pleasantly surprised.

Indoors or out in a sunny spot they grow and crop very well and taste so good.

Seeds were good, but the sowing instructions were completely wrong. When I pointed it out they didn't believe me till I sent a photo of what it said on the packet, at which point they apologised. Didn't cause me a problem, but could ruin things for a beginner.

  • Fresh Tomato Sauce Fresh Tomato Sauce

    When tomatoes are plentiful, home made tomato sauce is just the ticket. After processing in the food processor, I usually portion, add additional flavourings, such as chilli, smoked paprika, basil or mushrooms then freeze.

  • Heirloom Tomato, Basil & Goats Cheese Salad Heirloom Tomato, Basil & Goats Cheese Salad

    Long lazy summery days in the garden cry out for simplicity, allowing succulent produce to make its own statement. Lend a helping hand by choosing from the many different varieties of tomatoes which are now so freely available.

  • Warm Tomato Salad Warm Tomato Salad

    A warm and healthy tomato salad, great served in summer months as part of a light supper or is excellently served as a starter with crusty bread.

  • Beef, Mushroom & Onion Pie Beef, Mushroom & Onion Pie

    A delicious and cost effective meal, excellent for pre-preparing for the busy midweek schedule.
