Tomato 'Shirley' remains one of the most popular varieties for cultivating in cold or slightly heated greenhouses. This early maturing tomato has become an exhibitor's favourite for its heavy crops of excellent quality fruit. Tomato 'Shirley' also shows excellent disease resistance to Tobacco Mosaic Virus, Cladosporium ABC and Fusarium. With an open, indeterminate habit, this variety is best grown in growbags as a greenhouse cordon. Height: 200cm (79"). Spread: 50cm (20").

Excellent variety for the cold or slightly heated greenhouse.

  • Royal Horticultural Society Award of Garden Merit
  • Big harvest all summer long
  • Generous-sized salad tomatoes

Cor blimey. This cordon will give you handsome harvests from scented tomato plants for months even in a non-heated greenhouse.

Shirley is a relatively compact, early-maturing variety yielding a reliable crop of sweet tomatoes through the summer. Its cordon-type vertical growth means it's a great contender for space-saving vertical gardening.

Recommended by the Royal Horticultural Society you're a winner when you grow Shirley. Plants reach 2m (6 1/2 ft) and give you lots of fruited trusses of salad tomatoes all summer long.
