Tomato - Green Zebra
Solanum lycopersicum
£2.45
About
Large fruits, which remain green when ripe, with attractive yellow striping and excellent taste. In terms of appearance, this does what it says on the tin, but it does it very well. Fruits grow to around 8cm diameter and plants typically produce 6 to 8 fruits per truss. Quite fleshy, with very good taste and looks wonderful with other red and yellow tomatoes on a plate or at market. Guest description by our friend Dan from Chagfood CSA! (Approximate seed count - 25)
