Tomato - Green Zebra
The Tomato Bush Green Zebra, 'Lycopersicon Lycopersicum', is an old heirloom variety. Green Zebra is very flavorful, sweet, yet zingy and well balanced and not too acidic. They are entirely crack free and unique. Green Zebras are a rich, golden green with forest green stripes and a very smooth skin. The tomatoes are tennis ball sized, about 3 to 4 ounces. Tomatoes are generally started inside. They may also be seeded outside after the last average frost date. In warm winter/hot summer areas, tomatoes can be planted in early fall for winter harvest. Pole Tomatoes prefer well drained soil that is high in organic matter. Tomatoes need at least 1 inch of water a week. Soak to depth of 6 to 10 inches when watering. They need at least 6 hours of direct sunlight a day. ... more info
