Dwarf questions....

This year I'm growing the Dwarf Purple Heart, the seeds have already germinated. I grew Arctic Rose last year but I was disappointed; I would like to try for a better result with the Purple Heart. Some questions for members who have grown the dwarfs...

*Should I plant the stem deep as I do with my regular tomato plants? Info says the purple heart is tree shaped.
*Do the dwarfs need more or different care then regular tomatoes... different or more or less fertilizer and/or water.

The Arctic Rose started out fine and then seemed to decline and the tomatoes were very small and distorted in shape, although they tasted okay.
