Lutescent aka: 'Honor Bright' has some interestingly unique genetic traits. Its regular leaf foliage exhibits a yellowish, almost fluorescent-green hue as it grows. Initially you might think that the plants are sick or lacking some nutrient. This is not the case and can be attributed to a specific genetic trait. Another unusual trait is that the flowers are cream colored and not yellow like typical tomato varieties.
And finally, when it begins ripening its medium sized fruits, the color change process is also an unusual show. Instead of quickly going from a typical immature green to a variety's mature color, it slowly progresses through a very specific sequence turning from green to white to yellow to orange to red. A very unique and interesting tomato.

According to Alexander W. Livingston, 'Honor Bright' was, "A Peculiar Bright Red Variety, which first appeared in the form of a single 'sport' plant in a large field of Livingston's 'Stone' Tomato in 1894."[2] After growing it for a few years for observation and to raise a seed crop, he released it to the public in 1897. 5+seeds...
