(Determinate/75 Days) 

Banana Legs Tomato was named and introduced by John Swenson of Illinois in 1984. It produces clusters of 4 inch long 1 ½ in diameter yellow tomatoes that look like miniature bananas. Sweet, fruity, and low in acid, these are perfect for salads, slicing, and making sauce. Since they are determinate they are compact and all of the fruit ripen at the same time.

Planting Instructions - Start seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before last frost date. Do not Plant out until 2 weeks after last frost. Tomato seeds require high soil temperatures for good germination rates. We highly recommend heat mats to ensure and speed up germination. Pot up to 3–4 inch pots when first true leaves develop (not cotyledon leaves). Harden off plants for 1-2 weeks in full sun before transplanting them outside (after last frost). Make sure to give tomato plants a lot of space for vigorous root and foliage growth.
