Rebel Starfighter VT16 Tomato (10-15 seeds)
The green sister to the fabulous Rebel Starfighter Prime. A spectacular green when ripe tomato with a striped exterior and anthocyanin coloured shoulders. Generally heart shaped fruit with the odd random now and then.
Originally bred by Russ Crowe, who said "This ugly little duckling sure has come a long way over the last couple years. This was one of the stand out segregates from the cross of Xanadu Picasso x RHK GWR Heart. The fresh crisp flavours in a GWR fruit are hard to ignore and these were consistently some of the best every year I grew it out"
Very sweet and full-flavoured taste, initially a sweet citrus taste followed with a fruity flavour not dissimilar to that of the kiwi fruit. The flesh is soft and juicy. Being a green when ripe variety, there is little colour change when ripe. A gentle squeeze will certainly guide you.
Highly recommended variety!
