Stripes of Yore is a striking variety developed by Tom Wagner. It combines a yellow fruit background with dark anthocyanin-based coloration. The fruits are bright yellow with distinct dark stripes. The more sunlight the fruit receives, the darker it becomes. The fruits are small, slightly larger than typical cherry tomatoes, and weigh no more than 80 grams. Compared to other anthocyanin-rich tomatoes, the flavor is noticeably fuller and more tomato-like. The skin is fairly firm and resistant to damage. The fruits withstand transport very well, and their unique appearance often allows growers to set the prices on the local market. This is a mid-late variety that reaches maturity about 75 days after transplanting. It pairs perfectly on a plate with ripe “
Indigo Rose” tomatoes.
