Solanum lycopersicum Mighty Mato ‘Mortgage Lifter’ (Estler’s)

Mighty Mato grafted tomatoes produce 2-3 times (or more!) fruit than ungrafted plants and are more cold tolerant and disease resistant.

‘Mortgage Lifter’ is a dark pink tomato weighing 1-2 lb. with meaty, good, old-time flavour. It is an heirloom known for its productivity. 85-95 days. Indeterminate. Mighty Mato grafted tomatoes are hand grafted onto super strong tomato rootstock which provides greater disease resistance, greater cold tolerance (so tomatoes start growing faster in the spring), and great yield. Mighty Mato grafted plants usually produce 2-3 times more fruit than ungrafted plants, a difference that is especially large for heirloom varieties which do not always offer high yields.
