Solanum ‘Ketchup ‘n Fries’
The TomTato 'Ketchup 'n Fries' produces hundreds of cherry tomatoes on top and yummy, buttery potatoes underground!
The revolutionary TomTato ‘Ketchup ‘n Fries’ is a hand-grafted plant that brings together tomatoes and potatoes, two close relatives, that together give us one of life’s great pleasures: ‘Ketchup n Fries’. It produces hundreds of super sweet ‘Sweet Million’ cherry tomatoes perfect for snacking, salads, or sauces over a long period in summer. Then, below ground, it produces yummy, buttery-fleshed potatoes that can be roasted, boiled, mashed, or turned into french fries. Harvest your potatoes in the fall. Planting tips: Bury the graft and the stem of the tomato as deeply as possible. You can remove some of the lower leaves to get the tomato stem deeper. If potato suckers emerge from the soil, let them grow as you’ll get more potatoes.
