Plant Spotlight: Tomatillo - Tomate Verde

I love salsa verde. I’m growing this specifically for making and storing all the salsa verde this summer. These 4-6 ft plants produce small fruits that look like tomatoes, but are wrapped in a husk. Remove the husk to enjoy.

Growing notes:

• Tomatillos need 8 + hours of sunlight and lots of compost.

• This is a tall plant, so you’ll need a trellis, cage or stake.
