Product Overview
Sun Dipper F¹ Tomato is a distinctive grape tomato variety known for its fun, elongated “dipper” fruits that are perfect for snacking or adding a burst of flavor to salads. The vigorous indeterminate plants produce abundant 2 to 2.5‑inch bright orange tomatoes that fit comfortably in your fingers and deliver a juicy, naturally sweet taste with just a touch of acidity. Firm yet tender with smooth skins, these tomatoes pop with flavour straight from the vine, making them ideal for fresh eating or casual entertaining. Sun Dipper reaches maturity in roughly 60 to 65 days and performs best when grown in full sun with sturdy support to maximize production.
