Toothless Tiger

cosmicgardener · February 4, 2006

I planted Tigerella just so the grandies could have some stripey tomatoes ( they refuse to eat tomatoes except in Ketchup and I thought this might intrigue them enough. ). Not a stripe to be seen!

They taste quite good - sweet, have retained more yellow than red character but alas, they do not have one stripe either in the greehouse or on the outside plantings.

Is this due to some mis-management on my part?

Has anyone else experienced stripeless stripeys? Some of Arcadia growing next to them have vague stripes and no, I didn't mix up the labels so there may have been a grubby cross.
