Tomato - Glacier Seeds
Tomato - Glacier Seeds
Expect higher-than-average yields of reddish-orange fruits this season. This tomato has an outstanding flavor and grows on potato leaf plants.
History: This heirloom was introduced from Sweden in 1985 and sets the standard for extra-early tomatoes. It produces beautiful red globe-shaped fruits with orange shoulders up to 3 weeks sooner than other tomatoes. If you can hardly wait for that first spring tomato, this is your best choice. Extremely cold tolerant.

I only used one of the three plants in my hydroponic DWC system and it has exceeded my expectations. I've got some very healthy flowering taking place at the moment and I expect fruit/vegetable formation within 1 to 2 weeks. I like Sandia seeds packets because they are nice to look at, of good quality, sealed well and the description and growing information is well done.
Our Glacier tomato plant braved the Colorado spring snow and 29 degrees and survived! It can be cold-tolerant to 27 degrees! Great for the mountain short season, excellent flavor and nice and early. All around great short-season tomato for Colorado gardeners!
These are truly extra-early tomatoes, I was happy to harvest more red tomatoes this year thanks to this Glacier variety. I'll be growing all your short-season tomatoes next year so I avoid getting all my tomatoes in green come the first snowstorm. ;) Thanks!
