Orange Banana Tomato!!

[Snadger]

Not to be outdone by piglet and his Banana shallots, I have just bought a packet of seed (along with others!) of Orange Banana Tomatoes!!

As can be seen below, the fruit looks interesting and I am looking forward to growing and tasting them!

Oooh eck! they look interesting Certainly a talking point!

You'll have to let us know what they taste like and if they're easy to grow. Are they like normal tomatoes and just a different shape and colour, or are they like these tomatillo things that are a different thing altogether?

Just normal elongated tomatoes I think Protea!

I've got some of those seeds, too. I'm sure someone on here said they were very tasty. Can't wait to try them!

Hi Snadgar, just wondering where you bought the seed, and who packaged them?

[Earthbabe]

Don't mix them with too many carrots Snadger!!

Tomato saviour

I rescued a squashed one of these tomato's off a path at Ryton last year after a storm, did a germination test and they all sprouted, so have saved some seed for this year.

So you nearly slipped on a banana..............tomato?
