Tica is a second early, high yield tomato with short inter-nodes for protected cropping. Beautiful, shiny very firm fruits that can ripen on the plants for a long time. Can also be harvested in racemes. Because of the long storage life, Tica is also good for supplying wholesalers.
Recommended alternative for tomato Moneymaker [G421], which has been discontinued from our range.
