*Determinate types of tomatoes
End of each stem produces a flower cluster that stops growth in that direction. Lateral branches develop that
eventually terminate in a flowery cluster. Plants are smaller, more bushy and generally not desirable for staking.
**Indeterminate
Flower clusters are produced between nodes and the growing point continues indefinitely. Well adapted for staking.
