heirloom toms from swap?

11 years ago

I got a 4-pack of heirloom tomatoes st the swap last Saturday and I am looking online to see what I got.

I found

Pearly Pink which is a cherry tomato

Omar's Lebanese which looks to be a huge red

Turkish Stripe Monastery which looks to be slightly larger than a cherry

But I cannot find any info on Zebra Heart Stripe. Whomever brought these or anyone in the know.....is this a green variety tomato? All I could find online was Green Zebra Stripe. Not sure if that is the same thing?

Thanks!

Linda

I grew Omar's last year but didn't get a single fruit in that crazy weather.

Linda, It's "Zebra Heart" (striped). Seed from my mom, she bought it at Baker's Creek Seeds when we went and visited Bakersville in 2010. I did just find Zebra Heart at Tatianas, thanks for the link little minnie! It appears they haven't sold it in the catalog. Mom has the seed packet and said the item # is TS 131, but there is just a pic of many different tomatoes on the packet ( TS= striped). Tatiana's said a "medium bicolor". Try tatiana's again. I haven't grown this one yet, but have a few plants myself. I don't know why Bakers doesn't list it. I guess if it's good we'll need to save our seeds!
