Tomato 'Sweet Million'

Common name: Tomato 'Sweet Million'

Description: Sweet Million is a prolific cordon cherry tomato variety that lives up to its name, producing seemingly endless long trusses of small, intensely sweet, crack-resistant red fruits throughout the summer season. It is an improved selection developed for superior disease resistance and consistent high yields. The fruits are bite-sized, with a rich, sweet flavour that makes them irresistible eaten straight from the vine. Plants are vigorous and respond well to growing under glass, though they also perform well in warm outdoor positions.

Other benefits: exceptionally prolific cropping; crack-resistant fruits; good disease resistance; fruits over a very long season

Wildlife attraction: bees and other pollinating insects

Height & spread (approx.) at maturity: 1.5–1.8m x 45cm (cordon grown)

Position: full sun; best under glass or in a warm, sheltered outdoor position

Soil pH: slightly acid to neutral (pH 6.0–7.0); fertile, well-drained soil or compost

Moisture: regular, consistent watering essential; high-potash liquid feed once flowering begins; pinch out side shoots to maintain as a cordon

Winter hardiness: frost tender; grow as an annual from spring
