Down Near the Winterized Tomato's Level...

It was quite a surprise to see this plant growing and its tomatoes ripening in the middle of the Tucson winter...This delicious mottled and striped tomato survived uneaten just a few minutes after this photo was taken ... Then I ate it!! It was delicious...;))

 

As the following Wikipedia article points out, Green Zebra – though often called an heirloom, it is not. It is an open-pollinated cultivar bred from four heirloom varieties and released by Tom Wagner of Lancaster, Kansas in 1983.
