Yes. They are tomatoes, so need to be planted deep so that roots can form along the stem. Do remember that the leaves are very droopy (like hearts), so don't go overwatering them just because they look thirsty, but give them the same amount of water as the other varieties.

I potted-up a Maglia Rosa into a large OJ carton just the other day. (Started seeds in mid-Feb, and hope for some ripe maters by mid-June, if I'm lucky!). The final container will be a 3-gallon pot.

Wishing you a great crop of delicious tomatoes
