About this Product

Tomatillo seeds: If you've ever had enchiladas Verde, green salsa, or green relish for authentic Mexican tacos, your palette has more than likely been graced with the presence of the Tomatillo Verde. Tomatillos belong to the Physalis family (ground cherries, Chinese lanterns, etc). Unlike their counterparts, Tomatillos Verdes is the perfect mix of tangy and sweet. Tomatillos Verde is a staple in Mexican cuisine and holds a variety of uses. Like tomatoes, these are botanically classified as fruit but work best in savory applications. These can be sliced, battered, and deep-fried, made into hardy salsas, tangy sauces, enjoyed fresh, and blended into soups or smoothies. Try these fire roasted for an entirely new depth of flavor! Each plant will reach 3-4 feet in height. A benefit we found with tomatillos, is that you will usually find volunteers in the following years. We planted tomatillos back in 2019 and we've had volunteers for the past 2 years. Since we had so many, more than we could use, we decided to start selling the seeds this year. These guys are absolutely prolific and you will have plenty to share. These do freeze well so if you want to save some to use to make soup over the colder months, these are a great option. Unlike ground cherries, the tomatillo is quick to germinate and quick to grow and produce. Maturity days: 80-90 days

Meet the Maker

Welcome to Blue Pumpkin Seed Co.! My lifelong love of gardening, especially pumpkins, led me to create this company.

We started as a small family business on Etsy in 2020, sharing our passion for heirloom seeds. Over time, I took charge to ensure this labor of love would flourish. I'm thrilled to now offer you a carefully curated selection of seeds directly.

The wonder of watching a seed grow continues to inspire me. As a fellow gardener, I share the same excitement and joy for gardening as our customers do.
