75 days from transplanting. Indeterminate.
A breeder’s work of art! (Read the
story inside.) When we asked
tomato growers which varieties to
add, Green Zebra kept coming up
because of its excellent flavor and
unique color – rich, golden green
with forest green stripes. Very
smooth skin essentially free of
cracks. Tennis ball sized — 3", 3oz.
When a green tomato ripens, it
will soften and develop a slight
amber blush. Provide support for
vines that reach 6' or more.
This packet plants approximately 24 plants when started indoors.

When to sow outside: Recommended for mild winter climates only: 1 to 2 weeks before average last frost and when soil temperatures are at least 60° F.
When to start inside: RECOMMENDED. 6 to 8 weeks before average last frost.
Harvesting: Harvest green tomatoes when fruit has softened slightly and has a light amber blush. About 1 month before the average first fall frost, clip all blossoms and any undersized fruit off the plant. This will steer all the plant’s remaining energy into ripening what’s left.
