Green Giant is definitely an awesome tomato! Do you have many on your plant?

Ya know Patrina, my GG has a moderate amount of fruit on it. Not over-whelming and not too little. This was the first "green" tomato I've ever eaten. I was blown away. I think it's my favorite of all 45+ varieties I'm growing.

My Green Grape didn't come up. I will have to add Green Giant to my want list. Beautiful Pics!

I totally agree! Green Giant is a great-tasting tomato!

PS> Did you pick the Green Giant seedling up from me at the swap? Just curious to see how your plant's total output was.

Yes Chris,
You convinced me at the plant swap to try a green and gave me Green Giant. I'm so glad you did because I can't believe how much I love this tomato.

Green Giant won the best tasting contest at CHOPTAG two years ago. Last year it was Levino, and other previous winners were Aunt Gertie's Gold and Earl's Faux and if I remember right Marianna's Peace.
