A new release from well regarded German breeder Reinhard Kraft. Blue Wax is a compact plant, growing up to around 80-90cm, with sturdy stems and rugose leaves. It is a heavy yielder of mid-size saladettes with an unusual waxy skin which means they keep for a very long time on the counter after picking. They are beautifully streaked in pink, gold and anthocyanin, making them very beautiful, and also tasty.
Dwarf, regular leaf, mid season
Dwarf plants are a great addition to any garden, being perfect for large pots (12lt plus) and edges of beds. They possess a gene which causes their growth pattern to be condensed, meaning that the stems are sturdier, and the leaf nodes are closer together. This means that they are brilliant for growing outdoors, and can withstand wind and weather better than regular indeterminates. Also, a dwarf plant can produce as much fruit as a regular indeterminate, but in a much smaller space. Like regular sized plants, dwarfs come in determinate (bush types which set all their fruit at once) and indeterminate (vining) types.
Sow Jan-April indoors
10-15 open-pollinated seeds
