Bought as a seedling from Homebase – it said on the label that it was determinant…which it obviously didnt end up to be! Oh well – I just bought a couple of stakes and leaned it against the wall when it started to get too big (and hoped that the wind didn’t pick up!) It was well worth it though – those tomatoes are delicious!
