Worth a look, unusual tomato seeds from US
« on: January 23, 2010, 03:29:15 »
Hi, I found this  collection of toms while cruising for a specific white tomato, then found the seller  came well reccommended from another source, thought you might want take a look. It is on ebay US


  seller is                  Blue_Ribbon_Tomatoes


http://stores.ebay.com

There are other items too worth a look, I liked  her collection of 20 types wih shipping to the UK it was very cheap and anything else you buy comes free for postage

Click on the ebay link, the page will offer you a box to tick shop owners, type Blue_Ribbon_Tomatoes in there and press search, it comes up there but you have to click on it again where the owner says welcome to.. XX Jeannine

THANK YOU  Mat, I am not very good at doing links. XX Jeannine


 seeds from abroad, yes it is legal, although some types cannot be taken into the UK, having said that many many folk buy their seeds from abroad. I bought most of my seeds from the US and Canada when I lived in the UK.

Had a look, they are selling quite big quantites of seeds, but their sale packs of 20 varieties that you can choose is very good value, might be tempted! ;D
If it's not pouring with rain, I'm either in the garden or at the lottie! Probably still there in the rain as well TBH....🥴

Those names! Bulls Bag, Purple Dog Creek, and Greasy Beans: they hardly sound like tomatoes but very tempting!

Ohh they look great, but as it's my first time growing toms this year, ill stick with 'Tigerella' :P
Please don't be offended by my nickname 'Mortality'
As to its history it was the name of a character I played in an online game called 'Everquest'
The character 'Mortality Rate' was a female Dark Elf Necromancer, the name seemed apt at the time and has been used alot by me over the years.

The only thing stopping me is knowing I haven't got the space to grow all the varieties I've already got  :'(
