Tomato 'Cherokee Green Pear'
(75 days)
25 seeds $3.00
Cherokee Green Pear is my favorite green tomato. The medium-size, pear-shaped fruits have beautiful, lime-green interiors. The fruits are ripe when they develop an amber tint, at which stage they easily separate from the vine. The flavor is wonderfully rich and spicy. Early and highly productive.
Tomato 'Cherokee Green Pear' is a sport of Cherokee Green. It was discovered by Marianna Jones of Marianna's Heirloom Seeds in Tennessee. She says, "It's the only green pear that I am aware of."
