Flavour and tomatoes

Ha, just the group I need. I would like to get hold of some tomato seeds that will produce deliciously flavoured tomatoes. I know that these seeds exist but are not sold at regular suppliers because of registration fees and such like. But I have no clue about where to start looking. TIA Last summer we tried Cherokee Purple, from the HDRA seed library (no problems with delivery or germination). A sort of marmande-type but not quite so big. Superb flavour although at first we thought they were rotting - when ripe they tend to develop quite a strong purple tinge which looks a little as though they have been caught by a frost and are starting to rot. Survived last summer with minimal watering. Personally, I've never found any tomatoes in UK shops which have any decent taste and only eat those we grow ourselves. Commercially produced tomatoes really are tasteless and watery. -- Larry Stoter |
