I've literally grown Green Zebra tomatoes from seeds for over 20 years in a row now and they are by far my favorite variety ...they have a delicious tangy flavor, they are very disease resistant and never crack or split. Because of deer I'm forced to grow them in pots on my deck and they are always the last plants to survive and produce in the Fall ...they produce steadily all summer long. They are the perfect tomato variety as far as I'm concerned!

I gave these seeds 5 stars, but the seeds are not Green Zebra. Maybe the seeds were packaged incorrectly, the tomatoes are ripening to red. I really wanted Green Zebra, but I'm equally ecstatic with the results of whatever tomato seed I did get. The plant is vigorous. I have harvested 4 large tomatoes by the middle of August. There are 4 more large tomatoes still on the vine with additional smaller fruits growing. The ripe tomatoes are savory and extremely flavorful, not sweet. I included a picture of the internal seeds packet with is number. Is the green zebra SKU number "tomato RS 38849"?

I've always grown Tomatoes in Minnesota from bedding plants. I am now in FL and decided to try growing them from seed. I tried 3 methods, 2 worked and the plants are stunningly luxe and very healthy. We are looking forward to harvest this winter and hopefully into spring.

Delicious tomatoes that look absolutely gorgeous like the picture. Deep, vine-ripened flavor, full of sweet and savory fl juice. The tomatoes themselves look perfect, but the vines seem more susceptible to powdery mildew than other tomatoes I planted. Give them space for ventilation and pretreat.
