Weve grafted two tomato varieties onto one plant, so you can pick a bountiful crop of two mouth watering varieties from just one plant! Both have been selected for their quality and taste and will perform well in a sunny spot outside or in a greenhouse. And not only do you get bigger crops from less space but, because theyve been grafted for extra vigour, theyll be ready to pick earlier too! Plus we're proud to bring you a unique grafted plant experience! The experts have taken a special rootstock and grafted both a tomato and an aubergine onto it, to create what we've called Tombergine so that you can pick tomatoes and aubergines from one plant!

Commercially the grafting method has been used for some time, but we've developed them for the home gardener, and early adopters have had extraordinary results Big increases in yield from larger, more vigorous plants Earlier cropping, yet with sufficient vigour to crop well later in the season Grow in the greenhouse or outdoors little or no heating required Excellent resistance to soil borne pest and diseases no more ring culture or grow bags plant straight in the soil Greater tolerance to nutritional disordersNote that grafted tomatoes are not suitable for grow bags. An improved technique for tomato grafting Since 2012, all our grafted tomato varieties now use this new technique which leads to even earlier and bigger crops, with fruiting beginning lower on the stems, producing at least one extra fruit truss per plant during the season!
