Title: Minatature tomato plants,seeds wanted please
Post by: Jeannine on May 31, 2007, 20:55:54
I would like to find some very small types of tomato seeds. I am not even sure what I am looking for as I have never bothered with them before.

I picked up a couple of Micro toms recently and am fascinated by them.

Does anyone have any seeds of these or indeed other really small plants that I can swap something for please, or the name of a supplier.

Really tiny plants.

Even names of varieties would be a help.

Thank you Jeannine

Jeannine I'm baffled.  Why are you looking for toms at this time of year?

Oh time of the year makes no dfference to me,if if early I plant in the cool greenhouse, if it late and small I might grow indoors through the winter.Or raise in the heated one to maure them off, and often I look for seeds out of season to add to my collection for another year.

Probably 12" max... I grew it in open soil last year to bulk up the seed and it sprawled... it will tumble!
;D
HSL variety deleted from the National List!

How lovely to have so many options.   ;D

I can let you have the remainer of Biscombe's Micro Toms (they are doing really well Biscombe, see the 'how are your toms' thread) and some Tiny Tim which are a bush variety, cherry type, which grows up to 2 feet tall.  PM if interested.
