Green Grape (Indeterminate), Heirloom Tomato Seeds

Green Grape (Indeterminate), Heirloom Tomato Seeds — The 1983 Tom Wagner Classic in Its Indeterminate Form

Developed in 1983 by legendary seed breeder Tom Wagner of Tater Mater Seeds in Bakersfield, California, Green Grape is the heirloom cherry tomato that changed how gardeners think about green tomatoes. This indeterminate form produces high yields of 1–2 oz yellow-green cherry tomatoes with lime-green color on the inside — some growing in the shape of a grape, others in the shape of a cherry tomato — in clusters of 6 to 12. They are very sweet, juicy, and flavorful, staying green when mature and turning a golden yellow when fully ripe, making harvest timing intuitive.

Perfect for green ketchup, green tomato soups, sauces, and garnishes, as well as salads and snacking. Indeterminate, 78 days.
