Fried Green Hybrid Tomato
Growing Fried Green Hybrid Tomato
‘Fried Green’ is a hybrid tomato bred specifically for harvesting while the fruits are firm and green. Its crisp texture holds up beautifully during cooking, while the flavor has a fresh, slightly tart character reminiscent of green apple.
Start ‘Fried Green’ indoors for transplanting. Plant seeds about ¼ inch deep, space plants 24 to 36 inches apart, and grow in full sun. This heat-tolerant variety performs especially well through warm summer conditions.
Ready to mature in about 80 days, harvest the fruits while they are still firm and immature when growing them specifically for fried green tomatoes.
Firm, tangy, and distinctive, ‘Fried Green’ is especially well suited to frying, fresh eating, and slicing.
