About this variety
Machine-translated, may contain errors.
A striking variety with green and yellow striped skin that remains green even when ripe; you can tell it is ready when it yields slightly to pressure and shows a yellow shimmer. The flesh is juicy and emerald green, with a refreshing, tangy flavor. It grows with medium vigor and reliably produces medium sized fruits; like all heirloom varieties, it lacks resistance to brown rot and prefers protected conditions. It is a visual highlight in colorful tomato salads. It is seed stable and easy to grow back.
Zesty and fresh with a distinct, pleasant acidity and a hint of lime, this is a bright, lively tomato to add extra zing to your salad.
