The Green Zebra tomato was first developed in Everett, Washington in 1983 by Tom Wagner. As a plant breeder, Wagner had long been intrigued by the evergreen tomato. He set out to develop a striped green variety that unlike most green tomatoes would be resistant to cracking. To achieve this new tomato variety Wagner crossed 4 heirloom varieties, one of which was the Evergreen tomato. He named the tomato Green Zebra, a nod to the tomatoes' unique striping. It was featured in Wagner's Tater-Mater Seed Catalog 1993 through 1996 during which time it achieved commercial success in both the gardening and culinary world. Today they are grown and distributed predominately out of Mexico and California.
