It's not a Green Zebra.

It's probably Tigerella based on the size.

Tigerella was at one time called Mr Stripey. However what people calle Mr Stripey now is a large 1lb + tomato found by Wayne Hilton, the former owner of Totally Tomato, Shumway, Vt Bean Seed, etc., found in some place in GA.

Many thanks, I saw the photos of Mr. Stripey at the Totally Tomato website and it sure didn't look like what I was growing. I've now got pear tomatoes with that same striped red/yellow/orange skin.

KCTomato, what's your take on 'Fuzzy Peach'? They look and feel like apricots but flavor is rather bland...
