GreenI was pleasantly surprised by the orders for green fruit. I love the spicy flavor, and apparently so do you! I've streamlined the number of selections to offer the best of the different sizes. The most common question...A green tomato is ripe when the shoulders turn amber or the birds start eating them!

80 Ind. Named for Ruby Arnold of Greeneville, Tennessee. Large beefsteaks, up to a pound, are slightly flattened. As with most green fruits a yellow tint appears when ripe but Aunt Ruby's also offers a pretty pink blush from the blossom end, which permeates into the flesh.

New for 2010; I am always looking for ‘new’ green tomatoes. Baker creek has released this beauty;” A far-out and really cool tomato developed by Tom Wagner, who also bred the ‘Green Zebra’ and many other great varieties. This one is especially fascinating, with its amazing, pointed pepper shape and the mellow green skin, nearly like a green chili. The flavor is also good, strong and earthy, perfect for canning or for making green ketchup! This is one of the few green paste tomatoes and, like most paste types, this one has few seeds. That made seed collecting a challenge, but fortunately this variety really produced, right up till frost. Plants are really vigorous with thick stems and large leaves” Lets try it shall we. | |

This is a really different tomato. The outside is a strange color of orange overlaid with green, or vice versa, blush golden when ripe. Inside it is a beautiful chartreuse/lime green throughout.

The production of this plant was enormous and the taste superb, so it is highly recommended! In slices, it would be a beautiful EDIBLE green garnish.
