Blaby tomato

For those who like to read of rescues, here's the Seed Saver's Exchange description of Blaby: https://exchange.seedsavers.org/cata...spx?itm=137071 I'm growing a foliage turnip, Horpaczi Lila, that a friend got some years ago from the East German seed bank. The mind boggles at what must be stashed at the Svalbard bank! Exactly. I sowed two Blaby tomatoes, one germinated. Huge plant, some massive tomatoes. I got the seeds from my German friend who always sends me interesting seeds from the Netherlands seed bank every Christmas for a present, I have some rare beans, mainly French types waiting to be sown. Tried to swap runner beans seeds, but they don't do well there. Because when it's summer, it's hot for weeks and I don't think the continental climate is suitable. French beans do well there. Runner beans actually prefer higher temperatures than French! But they require regular water and a higher humidity, so they often do badly in hotter conditions. French beans are more tolerant of dry conditions. Regards, Nick Maclaren. I know. |
