TOMATO - GRAFTED HEIRLOOM

Tomato - Grafted Heirloom Lycopersicon

Tomato 'Mortgage Lifter' is a meaty variety that has the classic, old time taste. It is a high-yielding variety that produces 1lb - 2lb, dark pink fruit. This is a wonderful heirloom variety that is great for slicing.


When tomatoes are grafted, a variety bred for flavor is grafted onto a vigorous and disease resistant rootstock.  The result is a delicious tomato with heirloom flavor, superior disease resistance and a bountiful harvest.


Here are some benefits of grafted tomatoes vs. non-grafted:

HOMEOWNER GROWING AND MAINTENANCE TIPS

The graft must be planted above soil level, and prune lateral suckers for best fruiting.  If you look closely you will see the graft at the base of the stem.  Do not allow the top plant to begin to root into the ground or you will loose the benefits of the grafting.
