I just ordered a few very interesting tomatoes from this site:
http://www.heirloomtomatoesoftexas.com/
I got an email from the owner saying he'll be coming to the garden show
on Zilker park in late March, so I can save money on shipping if I pick
up my order then.
Sounds like a plan to me!

Thanks so much for word of this outfit. Haven't had time to really
look at the site, but I suppose that many of the varieties are not v/f
resistent and so it's best to plant them where tomatoes have not
recently grown. Please report (when you know better how they've done)
what your experiences are with which varieites--yield isn't important;
hardiness and flavor are, and it goes without saying that all tomato
plants are beautiful.

Thanks, Victor! Any idea where he's located?

Anybody else know any Texas vegetable seed growers? Preferably with a
web presence?

It is. There is a guy who usually comes. He's in a wheelchair and sells
brugmansia and datura. I think I missed last year. At some point, don't I have
to stop this insane plant collecting? I mean, I have almost 400 different
plants in the gardens! Pretty soon, this will be a prairie with some paths
between. Not the sort of thing which generally goes over well in a
sub-division. Fortunately, we're 1/2 acre zoned and we all do what we want (no
HOA thank goodness), but I am having a hard time finding things I don't already
have!

Eh, it's fun...

With tomatoes, I have awful timing. This past year I had mine in the fall, in
containers. They are all in the greenhouse now, putting out flowers and look
pretty good. I do have on heirloom, 'Brandywine.' If I can get some fruit
from that, I will be very happy.
