(Indeterminate/65 Days)
Indigo Pear drops tomatoes are one of the prettiest tomatoes that you can grow! Extremely productive plants produce 1/2 ounce, yellow, pear shaped fruit that are loaded with antioxidants causing varying amount of dark purple (almost black) blushing on the shoulders. This is an early producing variety that does well in most climates and can produce up to a thousand tomatoes in the right conditions. They are sweet, juicy, and will definitely be a family favorite!

Planting Instructions – Start tomato seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before last frost date. Do not plant out until 2 weeks after last frost. Tomato seeds require high soil temperatures for good germination rates. We highly recommend heat mats to ensure and speed up germination. Pot up to 3–4 inch pots when first true leaves develop (not cotyledon leaves). Harden off plants for 1-2 weeks in full sun before transplanting them outside (after last frost). Make sure to give tomato plants a lot of space for vigorous root and foliage growth.
