 Not red all over: The black and white grafted Indigo Rose and White Cherry tomato

A plant breeder has blended two varieties to create the world’s first BLACK and WHITE tomato plant.

Experts at Sutton Seeds previously made a strain called Indigo Rose - the planet’s only black tomato .

But now they have blended the Indigo Rose with a white-cherry strain to produce the black and white variety.

A spokesman said: “This year we have upped the ante by grafting Indigo Rose to a creamy-white cherry variety to produce the first black and white tomato plant.

“We promise amazement from your friends, neighbours and family, not to mention rather groovy salads and sandwiches.”
