Salsa lovers, your perfect tomato has arrived. Burpee's 'Fresh Salsa' tomato is a unique offering that excels in the kitchen. This plum-shaped, dripless variety boasts a firm, yet sweet, texture that makes it ideal for chopping into tiny, solid cubes.
The determinate, bushy plants are loaded with 4-5 oz. fruits, measuring 2-3.5 inches long and 2 inches in diameter. These compact plants, reaching 38 inches tall with an 18-inch spread, produce a bountiful harvest of "all meat" tomatoes in approximately 70 days after transplanting into the outdoor garden.
Burpee's commitment to quality is evident in this non-GMO offering. Each packet contains 30 hand-picked, non-GMO seeds that have a germination rate 35% higher than industry standards.

Whether you're crafting tasty salsas, bruschettas, or light Italian sauces, the 'Fresh Salsa' tomato is the perfect choice. Its meaty texture stands up to fine chopping, making it a versatile addition to your home garden.
To get started, sow the tomato seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the average last frost. Harden off the young plants by gradually exposing them to outdoor conditions for up to a week before transplanting, ensuring they are well-acclimated to their new environment.
This annual, container-friendly tomato thrives in full-sun conditions and can be grown in all growing zones, from 1 to 13. Let's grow together and enjoy the fresh, flavorful results of Burpee's 'Fresh Salsa' tomato.

product_care_instructions | Keep plants well-watered during the growing season, especially during dry spells. Plants need about 1-2 inches of rain per week during the growing season. Use a rain gauge to check to see if you need to add water. It's best to water with a drip or trickle system that delivers water at low pressure at the soil level. If you water with overhead sprinklers, water early in the day so the foliage has time to dry off before evening, to minimize disease problems. Keep the soil moist but not saturated. | ||||
