Stick

Origin:

USA

Description:

Developed in 1953, it is said to have been obtained by mutation of the Stockesdale variety. One of the few varieties that has a pom-pom foliage. A unique look that makes it a truly atypical variety. A robust plant that climbs on a stem while producing only one or two suckers. Grows very well in pots.
In terms of taste... it's really not great...Purely decorative or educational variety. A variety that we grow every year in our school gardens, to show students the incredible diversity of life. 

Today, thanks to the work of enthusiasts, there are several new varieties derived from the stick tomato:

• Stick blue
• Stick mooncalf
• Stick bronze
• Stick yellow

Taste rating out of 10: 4/10

This variety is a tomato that should be grown for its decorative aspect, which is why you will find it in the category "collection tomato"

Growing tips:

Rather vigorous plant, avoid removing suckers or growing it in a greenhouse to prevent having to manage a vine several meters long.
