Popular garden tomato ripens to reveal an intriguing pattern.
Not all the best tomatoes are red. Great garden varieties come in all colors, shades, fades, and bands. This striking striped slicer doesn't belong in the zoo. Let it root around and become part of your garden landscape and salad plate, where its green and yellow stripes delight. Provide it with the support it needs to stand upright and proud, showing off its big clusters of pretty fruit. Then open the garden gates and share the bounty with friends and neighbors. Diversity should run free!
