I have been visiting some friends in Blackpool.
We talked about tomatoes.
I said that this year I was growing : SUNGOLD, MARMANDE, ALICANTE,
GARDENERS DELIGHT , TIGERELLA and POMODORO
They said they preferred Blackpool or Jersey tomatoes.
I don't know if they mean tomatoes grown in Jersey and shipped to UK
supermarkets but the true Jersey tomato is Jersey Sunrise. That's the old
variety that was grown in the fields when I was a child. The HDRA has
supplies, I believe. They have had them some for some time and I sent them
some from our
JS
toms two years ago.
