We tested an Antho Striped Dwarf tomato plant indoors, in the same way as the micro-dwarf varieties, under light in a 1-gallon pot. The plant stayed small and compact, 40 cm tall, and produced a few beautiful clusters of delicious cherry-sized tomatoes. In spring, we transplanted this plant to the garden and it continued to produce until frost. It didn’t grow beyond 3 feet, yet remained very compact. It’s an indeterminate variety with surprising resistance and longevity.
