A tomato with an interesting color
The Blue Streaks tomato variety from Tom Wagner produces red-streaked fruits that turn indigo in the sun under the action of their anthocyanins, powerful antioxidants. Our personal opinion on the indigo tomatoes is that they look fabulous on a plate or in a salad and taste mild.
