Cherokee Green

Description: Yet another wonderful variation of Cherokee Purple, this one features green-fleshed fruit blushed with amber at the blossom end. Medium to large, 8 to 12 oz. tomatoes have a remarkable flavor that is complex and delicious in the way that Cherokee Purple and Cherokee Chocolate are. Combined with great productivity and a good measure of disease tolerance, Cherokee Green offers luscious tomatoes considered by many as the best tasting green-colored fruits. Indeterminate. 75 days.

Notes: This tomato turns more pale yellow when ripe but very green on the inside. The tomato is delicious and ranks in my top 3 for green tomatoes. The taste is refreshing and I often serve it sliced and chilled with a dab of cottage cheese, a sprinkle of extra virgin olive oil, a splash of Balsamic Vinegar, and a couple of leaves of fresh basil.
