This indeterminate Austin red pear tomato also known as the teardrop tomato is an old-time favorite that is a joy to grow. Fruits will be bright red, pear-shaped, and 2 inches long. These tomatoes are very productive, naturally fly resistant, and are great on salads, sauces, or roasted in the oven.

Determinate (Bush): Varieties do not need pruning and may be grown with or without support; fruit ripens within a concentrated time.

Indeterminate (Climbing): Varieties should be staked, trellised, or caged, and pruned for best results; fruit ripens over an extended period.

Days to Maturity: 80 days

Plant size: Indeterminate (will continue to grow)

Plant spacing: 24-36” apart

Sun, soil, and water requirement: Tomatoes thrive in full sun and grow best in well-drained soil, heavy with organic matter. Water deeply to encourage root growth and a sturdier plant. 

Pruning: You can prune or chose not to. Pruning can help air circulation and reduce the chances of disease.

Harvesting: At the earliest, tomato fruits can be harvested when the bottom shows some pink. Fruits picked three-quarters to fully ripe will taste better than those picked earlier. Fruits should be harvested more frequently if cracking or splitting is a problem.

Culinary: The list of what you can do with tomatoes is endless…

Nutrients: Tomatoes are a good source of several vitamins and minerals, such as vitamin C, potassium, and vitamin K.

Transplanting: At planting, remove all side shoots to leave the tomato plant with only one main stem. Plant tomatoes with part of the stem buried so the soil level is just below the lowest set of leaves. Additional roots will develop along the buried stem portion. Water your new plant well, and regularly as it establishes itself. Tomatoes will need more water the bigger they get.

Companion planting: Plant near asparagus, basil, carrots, gooseberries, mustard, parsley, onions, rosemary, sage, stinging nettles, borage, chives, nasturtiums, peppers, garlic, leaf lettuce, beans, celery, dill, melons, radish, spinach, and thyme. Keep away from fennel, kohlrabi, potatoes, walnuts, broccoli, brussels sprout, cabbage, cauliflower, corn, and kale.
