Is Sungold a Bush Tomato

BUSH OR CORDON? Sungold is a cordon variety of tomato. It is also a vigorous grower and is probably best grown as a cordon if you want tomatoes early in the season. We have tried growing it as a bush type and it still produces a good crop but the foliage becomes very crowded and runs the risk of fungal infections.

What variety are bush tomatoes?

These varieties stop growing sooner than indeterminate varieties with the stem ending in a fruit truss. They are referred to as ‘bush’ and ‘dwarf’ types (suitable as hanging basket tomatoes) and don’t require any pruning. These are similar to indeterminate varieties (grown as cordons) only they produce shorter plants.
