Send them to the Queen. Doesn't the song say 'Send her Victorias'?
Groaaaannnn! BTW, Derek, we have some new Jersey Sunrise and I'm
saving you some seed from those because I'm beginning to wonder if the
others have hybridised. How did they turn out with you? These, which
we've grown here this year, came from Jersey from someone who always
grows only J Sunrise. The fruits are wonderful for flavour and the
leaves are a bit different to the others we have.
As chance would have it, I had the first one to ripen for my lunch today:
it was very nice! but then a home-grown one straight from the vine is
always going to taste better than a Checkers one, whatever the variety.
I'd love to receive some of the new batch of seeds, thank you. Perhaps I
can grow enough for me and my fellow allotment-holders so that we can
keep the strain pure!
