Tomato 'Green Zebra'

'Green Zebra' is probably the best-known striped tomato. The 3-ounce fruits are chartreuse with lime-green stripes. The bright green flesh is sweet and tangy with a unique flavor that is valued by professional chefs. You can tell it's ripe when the stripes turn yellow and the fruit is slightly soft but not mushy. This is a highly productive variety.

'Green Zebra' tomato was bred by Tom Wagner of Everett, Washington and introduced in 1983.
