Plant Itaitoms in November and they will far outcrop and outlast traditional tomato plants. Their exceptional vigour pushes them further and further ahead as the days and weeks go by. Grow them high on a trellis or low along the house foundations, in a tub or alongside the garage wall. It makes no difference, your Maxitom will fill the space with trusses of medium sized fine poured fruit.
