Tangy, Productive, and Easy to Grow — Toma Verde Tomatillo Is a Must Have for Fresh Salsas and Authentic Flavors

This heirloom variety produces small, green fruits wrapped in papery husks — perfect for homemade salsa verde and traditional Latin American dishes.



Why You’ll Love It

Toma Verde is a reliable heirloom tomatillo that matures early and produces heavy yields of round, green fruits. Each fruit forms inside a papery husk that splits when it's fully ripe. With its bright, citrusy flavor, Toma Verde is ideal for blending into salsas, sauces, and roasted dishes. The plants thrive in warm weather, are easy to grow like tomatoes, and benefit from being planted in pairs for optimal pollination and fruit set.
