Tomato Tasty Evergreen

Description

Originating from America, we cannot really improve on what Glecklers Seedmen 1958 catalogue said: "EVERGREEN TOMATO Green When Ripe" This strange tomato refuses to change color (USA spelling!) from its green stage other than to a pale yellowish green when dead ripe. Interior of fruit is extremely fleshy, remains green. Luscious and tender, a typical delicious tomato taste, moderately acid. Very fine for slicing and frying and especially for making delicious conserves. Pleated and large - tangy acidic but still tasty. Very productive. Wow! (Cordon)

Sowing Advice

Seeds are surface-sown or covered only slightly. Do not allow the soil to dry out. Containers are held in warm conditions until sprouts appear, which may take anywhere from 3-10 days. Move sprouting plantings immediately to bright light conditions, such as a south-facing window. Inadequate light is a frequent cause of failure of young seedlings. At about the time of last frost, set out seedlings into pots. Remove side-shoots and support the plant.
