90 days, dwarf — 'Kangaroo Paw Green' is a later season variety with plants that are vigorous, prolific, uniform, compact dwarf in habit with rugose, regular leaf foliage. The fruit are round to flattened-globe in shape, two to five ounces in weight, and green flesh and amber skin when ripe and are very tasty.
Developed by members of the "Dwarf Tomato Project" as a selection out of the "Witty family" ('Budai Torpe' and 'Cherokee Green', cross made in 2005 by Patrina Nuske Small of Australia). 'Kangaroo Paw Green' was selected and named collaboratively by Patrina, Tim Warren and Craig LeHoullier (Patrina chose "Kangaroo Paw," with Tim and Craig adding the color designation). Team members involved included Patrina, Craig, Justin Morse, John Biedler, Carol Knapp, Doug Frank, and Bill Minkey. Introduced by us for the 2016 gardening season. Each packet contains approximately 20 seeds.

The three Kangaroo Paw tomatoes - chocolate, yellow and yellow - are perfect salad and grilling varieties. They have lovely well balanced flavors, with perhaps some nuance differences between the three colors (or do they? If tasted blind, would that change perceptions?). They all possess the quality genes of one of their parents, Cherokee Green. They are healthy, productive plants.
