Listing is for 5 Seeds. Miltomate Vallisto is a tomatillo-type husk tomato that grows into a branching plant covered in papery husks that swell as fruit develops inside. The husks give the plant a lantern-like look, and the fruit is typically harvested once the husk is filled and begins to split or the fruit releases easily.

Tomatillos prefer full sun, warm soil, and enough space for a spreading habit, though light staking can keep plants tidier and improve airflow. Consistent watering during flowering and fruit set supports steady development, and mulching helps stabilize soil moisture. For best fruiting, grow more than one plant so flowers are well pollinated�this usually improves overall set.

This variety is often described as a strong producer once established, with many husked fruits forming across the plant. Harvest timing is a key detail: fruit flavor and texture are best when the husk is fully formed and the fruit detaches readily with a gentle shake or twist. Whether grown in beds or large containers, it�s a visually distinctive plant that delivers a long run of husked fruit through the warm season.
