70 days, dwarf — 'Big Green Dwarf' is a rugose, regular leaf, dwarf variety producing medium to medium large (eight to fourteen ounce), oblate fruit that retain green flesh when ripe but develop an amber skin like 'Cherokee Green'. It offers a nice, well balanced, medium intensity flavor that is fruity, sweet and somewhat melon-like.
Developed by members of the "Dwarf Tomato Project" from a cross between 'Golden Dwarf Champion' and 'Cherokee Chocolate', 'Big Green Dwarf' is the result of the collaborative work of Patrina Nuske Small, Marjorie Holloway (who named it), Craig LeHoullier and Bill Minkey. Introduced in 2014, it is relatively stable, and although rare, an occasional plant will exhibit red fruit. Each packet contains approximately 20 seeds.
In an effort to keep this variety available to home gardeners, 'Big Green Dwarf' has been released by "The Dwarf Tomato Project" (the breeder) to the public under the Open Source Seed Initiative (OSSI). You have the freedom to use these OSSI-Pledged seeds in any way you choose. In return, if you save seeds or use 'Big Green Dwarf' to breed a new variety, you pledge not to restrict others' use of these seeds or their derivatives by patents or other means, and to include this pledge with any transfer of these seeds or their derivatives.
