Hi last year I ordered for a gang of folks and it worked out well.
Tomato Growers are in the US, they have a super selection of toms, peppers and aubs, some can be ordered in large quantities.
They have a one fixed price for sending to the UK, so if you want anything added to my order I can save the postage for you, I don't want payment till I have posted them on to you in case they are out of stock and it will be just the cost of your seeds plus a stamp from my end. I use the Paypals transaction rate to convert into £s.
Take a look a the site on http://www.tomatogrowers.com
I have bought from this company for many years and rate then very highly.
Let me know as soon as you can.

Very tempting Jeannine! Do I need more than the 10 tomato varieties I already have? No, don't answer that!
That's cruel and heartless Jeannine... could lead to divorces up and down the country....
Can you get "Lime Green Salad" in the UK? If not I'd love to try it!
;D
Jeannine, you are a very naughty woman, please stop tempting me. Will power is at an all time low, I am going to have to have a lie down with a beer, another mince pie and a cigarette while I think about needing more seeds .....
:-)

Tiny Tim's crutches are by the fire, the little fellow's chair is empty, and the house is sunk in misery........Did Scrooge do this? No it was naughty Jeannine's fault - Bob Scratchit spent all their money on seeds
I really wanted to try Paul Robeson this year, and I was also taken with the oxheart Kosovo. If you wanted either, I can pay for them and you split the packets (or whatever)

Help me somebody - the aubergines look so tempting!!! Perhaps another G&T will make me incapable of using my laptop!
just seen that Dave's Seeds has Paul Robeson. How about Pink Ping Pong (Midseason#3456) instead?
and here is me sitting here think ing I was being helpful!!
I love Paul Robeson by the way it is one of my favourites, and Lime green salad is on my list for me. Mostly this year I am increasing my determinate ones so I can grow in pots by the back door. Nothing is getting pruned this year.I was trying to do a cherry selection all colours but I can't do it withouit using some indeterminates.
Still, I could be walking the streets or sitting in a pub with another G&T, it's harmless looking, it is when you press the submit button that I have to check the battery in the pacemaker!!
Have fun looking but please PM me if you really want me to order for you because I print of the PM and keep it handy, please put your address on it too XX Jeannine
Iwill order some Jeannine, but just a quick question - which are the best determinates - in your (humble) opinion. I was impressed with the few I tried this year. Obviously they all died of the blight ??? but it took them longer to go
I'm very tempted - when are you ordering?
Have you got any Whippersnapper which are a pinkish cherry/tumbler... I could let you have some in exchange for a few Lime green!
;D
I will hold off ordering till the 5th January.
If the Whippersnapper question was for me, yes I do have a few.
Determinates. I would have to pull out my old notes to better answer that one, I am ordering ones I have not ordered before, and there are some of my favourites that have been brought down from indeterminates to bush so I will try those.
It is al oldie but goodie.. I like Patio, it is very strong self supporting plant, small tomatoes but not as small as cherry.
Jap Black Trifele is a determinate and is an excellent tom.
LaRoma is excellent as a plum one, I swear by this one, fabulous yeild, but gets very heavy so be prepared to cage it.
I will be back to you soon, need to read my old notes from about 4 years ago XX
Reading my old stuff I have Bush Celebrity as a goodie, and I am told Bush Early Girl is as good as the big one. Legend of course because of the blight resist and it is not so bad in cooler weather. Oregon Spring is an old favourite, as is short season and the plant is very compact. Siletz, I liked too but felt it was not as productive as others but flavour was great for an early. Tumbler I always grow, as it is reliable, it doesn't need to be in a hanging basket but I do it that way.Flavour not wonderful but is is relaiable. I also like Stupice. All so far are very early toms , many of th4 derminates are. I think I would have to say if I was only growing one it would be Celebrity, both the plant and the fruit have verything I need. Bradley is anew one for me this year, I am tempted as it ios determinate and also a late. Does this help XX Jeannine
Hi just to let everyone know that the order went off last night . I will post again when I get a shipping notice XX Jeannine
you've sold me on Bush Celebrity, Jeannine. Mind you it took me a while to get up the courage to put "Bush" + "Celebrity" into Google ;D
Try looking up Sweet Tooth Seeds... it is pot as well as corn. XX Jeannine
and which one are you growing?
Well I can't get the corn, it has been discontinued................mmmmmmmmmmm

Suddenly summer doesnt feel quite as far off ! ;D

Just to let everyone know that I have received all your cheques very swiftly, thank you all, you are a good bunch XX Jeannine
