That is good news for Miss Tigerella.  What an amazing plant.  <!--more-->I brought it home last year on the recommendation of the good folks at <a title=\"TomatoMania\" href=\"http:\/\/tomatomania.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Tomatomania<\/a>, and as always, they did not disappoint.  This very vigorous grower produces bunches of red tomatoes with yellow stripes.  With their moderate size, about 6 ounces, and firm texture, they are excellent slicers &#8211; and their tangy tomato flavor makes them perfect for use in salads, sandwiches and antipasti.  Give this vigorous indeterminate 85 days, and she will reward you with a profusion of fruit all summer long.  A note &#8211; another tomato is sometimes referred to as Tigerella &#8211; that is the very large bicolor heirloom, <a title=\"Mr. Stripey info\" href=\"http:\/\/www.localharvest.org\/heirloom-mr-stripey-tomato-seed-C8028\" target=\"_blank\">Mr. Stripey<\/a>.  Double check the name marker on your plant, and if in doubt, ask your nurseryman.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"thickbox\" rel=\"2288\" href=\"https:\/\/adribarrcrocetti.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/Tigerella-605x640-4047_024.jpg\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-2286\" title=\"Tigerella Tomato\" src=\"https:\/\/adribarrcrocetti.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/Tigerella-605x640-4047_024-283x300.jpg\" alt=\"Tigerella Tomato\" width=\"283\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/adribarrcrocetti.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/Tigerella-605x640-4047_024-283x300.jpg 283w, https:\/\/adribarrcrocetti.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/Tigerella-605x640-4047_024-500x528.jpg 500w, https:\/\/adribarrcrocetti.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/Tigerella-605x640-4047_024.jpg 605w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 283px) 100vw, 283px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><br class=\"spacer_\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Note:  <em>You can click on any picture to see a slide show!<\/em><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #6a73bf;\"><em>I have no affiliation with any product, manufacturer, or site mentioned in this article.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Another in the ongoing series &#8211; Exploring Tomatoes This English heirloom was new to me last year, and it&#8217;s back again for 2011.
