GREEN ZEBRA #TG103<br />
75 days. One of my favorite tomatoes. Beautiful chartreuse<br />
with deep lime-green stripes, very attractive. Flesh is bright<br />
green and very rich tasting, sweet with a sharp bite to it<br />
(just too good to describe!). A favorite tomato of many high<br />
class chefs, specialty markets, and home gardeners. Yield<br />
is excellent. The most striking tomato in our catalog, a real<br />
beauty. Around 3 ounces. This is the tomato colored for the<br />
Green Bay Packers. Pkt $2.50 or 1/4 oz $12.00<br />
GREEN GRAPE #TG104<br />
70-80 days. Sister to “Green Zebra”, this tomato was also<br />
bred by Tom Wagner and has become the rage with<br />
specialty markets, home gardeners, and chefs. The flavor<br />
may be even better: rich, sweet, and zingy. The fruit are<br />
lime-green inside and have chartreuse-yellow skins. They<br />
are about the size of a large grape, perfect for salads<br />
and snacking. Makes most red cherries taste bland in<br />
comparison. Pkt $2.50<br />
GREEN SAUSAGE #TG105<br />
86 days. Determinate. The latest “Must Have”. It is simply<br />
outstanding! At last a banana-shaped paste tomato that is<br />
lime green and yellow striped when ripe! The flavor is rich<br />
and tangy. This will be a hot item for high-priced, groovy<br />
markets. So cool when mixed with orange, white, yellow,<br />
and red-striped paste types. Short, bushy plants produce<br />
4”-long fruit in abundance. Pkt $2.50<br />
GREEN BELL PEPPER #TG120<br />
75-80 days. Very well flavored, unusual stuffing-type<br />
tomato, having stunning stripes of light and dark green,<br />
maturing to yellow and green. Four-ounce, three- to<br />
four-lobed fruits are apple-shaped, and look like small<br />
blocky bell peppers. The seeds and pulp are contained in<br />
a mass near the stem, just like a pepper, and so are easily<br />
removed to prepare the fruits for stuffing. Pkt (15 seeds)<br />
$2.50<br />
GREEN PINEAPPLE #TG112<br />
Distinctive pineapple aroma makes my mouth water! This<br />
medium-sized, luscious-tasting variety has smooth, sweet,<br />
green flesh and olive/lime-colored skin. This heirloom was<br />
preserved by a family in Springfield, Ohio. Pkt $2.75<br />
MALAKHITOVAYA SHKATULKA #TG113<br />
70 days. The name, translated, means Malachite Box,<br />
named after the lovely green jewelry boxes named<br />
after the malachite mineral that comes from the Ural<br />
mountains and other areas. This early, light-to-olive green,<br />
medium-sized tomato has succulent, bright-green flesh<br />
that is very flavorful and tasty. Plants are productive even<br />
in the North, as this variety was developed at Svetlana<br />
Farm in Russia, and it has been tested in Siberia! Our<br />
grower likes to make a unique green ketchup from this<br />
variety. Pkt (15 seeds) $2.50<br />
SPEAR’S TENNESSEE GREEN #TG108<br />
A wonderful heirloom grown by the Spear family of<br />
Tennessee since the 1950’s and brought to us by a local<br />
customer who has been preserving it in his garden. The<br />
round fruit weigh 8-10 oz and have the taste of tomatoes<br />
from Grandma’s garden. They make your mouth water<br />
just thinking about them. This rare and historic variety<br />
deserves a place in every garden and certainly a place on<br />
our table in the future. Pkt $2.50<br />
