Tomato 'Moneymaker' Seed Pack

Loved by commercial growers in the 1950s to 1960s for reliable, heavy yields of sweet, meaty tomatoes that are excellent in cooked or fresh dishes. 'Moneymaker' is an indeterminate vining plant, so it will need support from a sturdy cage or trellis. It can be trimmed back, but that will affect overall yield. Water deeply then let soil dry before watering again.
