Tomatillo Varieties

Purple Tomatillos

In addition to Gigante Verde Tomatillos, I like to grow Purple Tomatillos. I’ve been growing Purple Tomatillos for several years now because I can’t find them at the grocery store.  Here are some of the features that I like:

Features:

1) The Purple Tomatillo packs a punch of color in the garden.

2) It matures in about 70 to 80 days which is about 20 days earlier that the green varieties.

3) Purple Tomatillos are about 1 1/4 inches wide.

4) Once this tomatillo changes from green to purple, it gets sweeter.

5) This variety will reach about 2 feet tall.
