Lemon Ice

Dwarf Lemon Ice (Dwarf Tomato Project) is a compact, rugose‑leaf dwarf that bears pale yellow, heart‑shaped fruit on stout plants. Vines average 2–3 feet (60–90 cm) with a tree‑type dwarf habit that performs well in patio containers. Fruits range from about 3–12 oz and offer a mild, well‑balanced, sweet flavor that develops best when fully colored. First harvest typically arrives around 70 days from transplant under warm conditions. Stake lightly or use a small cage to support clusters and maintain airflow. Fruits shine in both fresh salads and slow‑simmered sauces where their natural balance comes forward. Plants respond well to consistent moisture and mulching, which helps reduce blossom‑end stress and keeps fruit quality high. Give sturdy support and prune lightly to maintain airflow and make harvest easier as clusters build.
