Tomato 'Omar's Lebanese'
Availability: Out of stock
The remarkable heirloom tomato variety 'Omar's Lebanese' is prized for its enormous, pink-red beefsteak fruits. These tomatoes are well known for their meaty texture and sweet, rich flavour, which makes them perfect for sandwiches and fresh eating. "Omar's Lebanese" yields an abundant and striking crop, with fruits weighing more than a pound. It is an indeterminate variety, meaning that fruiting occurs all through the growing season.
Plant in rich, well-drained soil that receives full sun. Water the soil frequently to maintain an even moisture level, and mulch to keep moisture in the soil and keep weeds out. To manage their fast growth and large fruit sets, support the plants with strong cages or stakes. Use a well-balanced tomato fertiliser on a regular basis. Prune to increase air circulation and get rid of suckers, both of which help stave off illness.
