Description
(Indeterminate/60 Days)
Midnight Pear is not your ordinary pear tomato. This brownish purple pear has a rich and complex flavor that is intense and unique. These ones are easy to grow, mature early, and do well in colder climates. Not many of these will make it inside the house, because they are so good fresh off the vine. Kids love this variety!

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.
