An unusual tomato that stands out for its dark green foliage speckled with cream and its generous harvest of red fruits.
What attracts me to Variegated (Splash of Cream) is above all its beautiful variegated foliage, which adds a distinctive ornamental touch to the garden. Its regular leaves, dark green with cream-coloured markings, accompany a generous crop of medium-sized red tomatoes. When fully ripe, the fruits develop a well-balanced flavour of sweetness and acidity, with a juicy texture.
Its productive, indeterminate plant reaches approximately 150 to 180 cm (5 to 6 ft). To preserve its beautiful leaf variegation, it is best to protect it from direct sunlight.
Every variety has its own personality. The best tomato isn’t the one that everyone likes, but the one that finds its place in your garden, your kitchen, and your habits.
