This plant only grows inside a player-built Seedbed. A Seedbed section is crafted with 5 Fertile Soil each and placed through the build menu under the Farming tab. Each section accepts up to four plants, one in each corner. Walk up to an empty corner with the Tomato Sapling in the inventory and place it from the radial menu.
Tomato Sapling is obtained as a drop from harvesting wild Tomato plants in the world. There is no vendor that sells seeds or saplings, so the first stack of any plant has to be foraged.
Plants in Windrose take roughly 70 minutes of real time to grow to full size. Growth continues while the player is offline, so a freshly planted sapling will be ready next session. When ripe, the plant changes to a fully matured model with a faint highlight on inspection.
Press E on a mature plant to harvest. The harvest yields the listed crop plus a fresh seed of the same plant, so a single sapling effectively reseeds itself with no net seed loss.
A mature plant returns one Tomato plus one Tomato Seeds per harvest, so a planted corner is self-sustaining: replant the returned seed and the supply never shrinks. Spare Tomato beyond what cooking needs can be stockpiled, since the crop item itself keeps without spoiling.

Tomatoes feed into stews, sauces, and several mid-tier banquet dishes, and the fast 1,500 health crops mean a small bed can refill a kitchen between voyages.
Always harvest the seed back. Walking away from a finished plant before pressing E does not consume the seed, but breaking the plant with a tool will.
Pack a stack of saplings before sailing far. Harvested wild plants drop saplings inconsistently, and a small portable supply means the home base never runs dry of starter stock.
Saplings do not decay in inventory, so it is safe to overstock and replant only as space frees up in the seedbed.
Saplings all share the same Seedbed planting flow and roughly 70 minute grow time. The other Seedbed crop that follows the same self-reseeding pattern is the Leek Sapling. For the harvested item and its replantable seed, see Tomato and Tomato Seeds.
