Hi all,

Where would I get Orange-1 seeds from? I cant seem to find them listed at SSE or other seed sources. Sounds like a really good choice for me for next year....

squibT, I'm the original source of Orange-1 for foreign gardeners outside Belarus. So we can make a seedtrade later in autumn if you'd like.
Alternatively you CAN find it listed in SSE Yearbook 2007 in TOMATO YELLOW-ORANGE section

Here is what we have (the largest Orange-1 fruit is about 300 g and it is almost ripe)

Wow...great looking crop Andrey,

I would like to trade some seeds in the fall...thanx. I guess I could not find Orange-1 on the SSE site because I am not a member and cant see all the seed offerings?
Sounds like a great tomato. I hope to grow a few next year....

Yes, squibT, you can't find Orange-1 seeds just because it is available only from SSE members via SSE Yearbooks which you can have an access to if you will join SSE ;)

OK, let's have a trade later in autumn...

Finally got ripe Orange-1 tomatoes on July 31. One of them was a really large for this variety - 360 g! Usually Orange-1 bears 100-200 g fruits so this was a great surprise for me and for Leonid Mishin from our Belarusian Institute of Vegetable Gardening who has developed this variety... The taste is exceptional as well - not too sweet with a lot of juice as I like ;)
