Green, vibrant, and unmistakably garden-fresh.

Did you know tomatoes were once grown only as ornamental plants? This cult-favorite scent captures the vitality of the vine — bright, earthy, and deeply transportive.

How does it work?

The boxes are infused with seeds, so all you have to do is:

  • Tear up the box
  • Plant it in soil
  • Give it water and sun, and watch it grow.

What does it smell like?

Crushed tomato leaf and fresh green stems with a subtle hint of peppery spice. Clean, earthy, and wildly fresh — like brushing past the vines in summer.

Plant the box — the seed-infused packaging will grow delicious tomatoes.

Reviews

Tomatoes all year round!

"Being in Minnesota, we only have several months of real tomatoes. Now we can dream of them in the off season!"

— Jackie F. (5/5)

The best!

"This is my all time favorite summer candle! So fresh and nostalgic without being over powering."

— Alison B. (5/5)

Wild Tomato Vine

"I will say this candle puts off a wonderful amount of scent. I don't actually burn the candle but, rather, have it under a warming light and have no problems with it projecting. I will say the scent is a bit more basil-smelling than I would have preferred. I was really looking for a fresh-picked, vine-ripened tomato smell. That said, the scent is very fresh and tomato basil smelling. Smells like I'm cooking an Italian-inspired dish."

— Kimberly A. (4/5)

Summer Garden Vibes

"This candle smells like sun-warmed soil and tomato vines, with fruit ripening. Yum!"

— Heather B. (5/5)

"So excited after all the hype online, but this candle stinks. Literally. Gave 2 stars bc it is cool thet you can plant the box and grown an actual plant."

— Adrienne (2/5)

"Of all the hundreds of candles I've purchased this is my favorite. Smells identical to walking through the tomatoes growing in my childhood farm garden. After burning a while the scent mellows and maintains a lovely pleasant fragrance that fills my large open living space. Will purchase again and again."

— Kim (4/5)

Wild Tomato Vine - SO GOOD!

"I purchased a three pack of candles at a local shop that carries small KOBO votives. I bought a small votive trio, and once I lit this candle, I knew I wanted to get a large one right away! I absolutely LOVE the way this candle smells and I also love the Sweet Sunflower and the Heath Lavender. I plan to try all of them."

— Gina K. (5/5)

Amazing

"My new favorite candle. Definitely repurchased."

— Rebekah H. (5/5)
