A wonderful decorative plant producing early maturing, large, tasty purple-black fruits. Great in Mediterranean cuisine or simply roaste

Indoor Planting: Sow seeds thinly 1cm deep in trays of moist compost, be careful not to over-water. Store in a warm location at an approximate temperature of 15-20C (60-68f). When the seedlings are strong enough to handle, thin to 4″ (10cm) apart or singular in individual pots. The plants can then be moved to an unheated glasshouse in April or hardened off and planted out from June

Outdoor Planting: Sow seeds 1.5cm deep direct in growing beds 6″ (15cm) apart. Keep the soil moist and be careful not to over water. When large enough to handle, thin to 18″ (45cm) apart. It would also be useful to cover with cloches for extra protection. Stake the plants using canes when needed. Feed regularly with liquid tomato food. When the plants are approximately 18″ (45cm) pinch out the top of the plant to encourage it to bush out
