Blue Fruit is an outstanding tomato for its taste, beautiful fruit, small plant size and earliness.
Let’s start with taste: Blue Fruit has a very good sweet flavour, but that sweet flavour comes with a more complex taste. It tastes like a tomato, but maybe with more depth, a more unique flavour than you are expecting.
Fruits: Despite its name, Blue Fruit is more brown-pink-gray than blue. And has large fruits (150 g to 250 g) for a small, compact plant.
Plant Size: It is only about 18 inches tall (a great container variety) with beautiful potato leaves.
Maturity: On top of all of these great attributes, Blue Fruit is one of the earliest tomatoes in our garden.
Blue Fruit was first offered in the Seed Savers Exchange in 1996 by Ake Truedsson of Klagshamn, Sweden, who noted it came from Estonia.

How to Plant: Start seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost. Plant seed 5mm (¼ inch) deep. Keep moist. When true leaves appear, transplant to a larger container if needed. Transplant outside after the danger of frost has passed/later spring.
