Just typed "early girl tomato seeds" into google and it came up with a few. Not sure of prices but worth a try.

Welcome to the site Twoflower...  ;D
I have about 40 varieties on the go, but that isn't one of them...  ::)

try heirloom seeds....

[Twoflower]

Have been to goggle but they all seem to be in the us, and they are not allowed to send us seeds.

[saddad]

Ruud in Holland may have some.... his collection is extensive...  :-\

[Twoflower]

Sorry is Ruud a web site? I'd like to look even if it is dear, I'm trying to get hold of them for the next plot holder to me. He has been growing them for 30+ years and can't get hold of them this year. He is not very well and it would be a nice surprise for him.

http://www.seeds-by-size.co.uk/ sell them, a basic website as you cannot order on line but you can print out an order form or e-mail them, they are a couple of pounds. Good luck, how thoughtful of you!! :)

No, sorry for not being clear, Ruud is one of our members... I swapped some seeds with him recently. Got to Swaps and scroll down for a bit looking for him or go to the members list...  :-[

Thanks Reddy we must have posted at the same time...  ;D

TwoFlower, you might like to check out Outdoor Girl, which I think is a new variety derived from Early Girl

Do you think Euromoney could be the same?

wasnt Eurocross derived from Moneymaker?

Are they an hybrid of both?

If so who stocks them ?

Maybe there worth a try?


whats the tast like?

never heard of britians breakfast .

[saddad]

I got both from HSL at Ryton. I thought Euromoney was bred from Eurocross but could be wrong (I often am)...  :-X
