Dwarf Wax

Determinate. Bush. Originally bred by Tom Wagner, this late variety produces curious hairy, stout bushes followed by green striped fruits which ripen to yellow, retaining their stripes. The fruits have distinctly waxy skin, "squeaky" to the touch. Good eating, they are sweet and tangy, and keep well despite their thin skin. They also grow well in pots. This variety produces flowers with stigma that protrude from the anther cone, so if seed saving it will require isolating from other varieties of this type.
