Product Description

Green Zebra is actually the result of four heirlooms bred together (not genetically modified, don’t worry!).
It’s a real beauty, exquisite emerald green skin, dark green vertical stripes, and gently flavorful green flesh. Ready to be eaten fresh or canned and enjoyed year-round. High-yielding indeterminate plants.

Sow seeds indoors 6 – 8 weeks prior to transplanting outdoors in a sunny location in Spring after all danger of frost.
Approximately 20 seeds per package.
Heirloom/Organic seeds grown and harvested on Vancouver Island.

What’s the difference between “indeterminate” and “determinate” tomatoes?
Determinate tomatoes, or “bush” tomatoes, are varieties that grow to a compact height (generally 3 – 4′). Determinates stop growing when fruit sets on the top bud. All the tomatoes from the plant ripen at approximately the same time (usually over period of 1- 2 weeks). They require a limited amount of staking for support and are perfectly suited for container planting.
Indeterminate tomatoes will grow and produce fruit until killed by frost. They can reach heights of up to 12 feet although 6 feet is normal. Indeterminates will bloom, set new fruit and ripen fruit all at the same time throughout the season. They require substantial staking for support.
