Annie's Heirloom Tomato Collection

This collection focuses on compact varieties, most of which are determinate or semi-determinate. This means they grow to a manageable, bush-like size and produce their harvest over a shorter window, making them perfect for containers.

Yes, these varieties are specifically curated for small spaces. We recommend using pots that are at least 5 gallons in size to ensure the root systems have enough room to support a healthy, productive plant.

Heirloom tomatoes generally require the same basic care as hybrids: consistent watering, full sun, and regular feeding. Because they are open-pollinated, you can save the seeds from your harvest to plant again next year.

The collection includes a rotating selection of five distinct heirloom varieties chosen for their performance in small spaces. While the specific mix may vary slightly by season to ensure the best quality, each set is balanced to provide a mix of cherry, slicing, and canning types.

Even though these are compact varieties, they can still become top-heavy once they start producing fruit. Using a small tomato cage or a sturdy stake is highly recommended to keep the plants upright and the fruit off the soil.
