Aunt Ruby's German Green heirloom tomatoes are a cultivar originating with Ruby Arnold (d 1997), of Greeneville, Tennessee,[http://store.tomatofest.com/Aunt_Ruby_s_German_Green_Tomato_Seeds_p/tf-0033.htm Aunt Rbys German Green Tomato Seeds] but achieving great Seed Savers popularity. They are, as the name implies, "green" tomatoes, which really means they are a greenish yellow when fully ripe, but are still tasty when picked early.
