Trip to Italy - Varieties to Look for?

JosephineRose · February 12, 2018

Hello,

We are planning my first ever trip to Italy in April, and I would like to bring back some lasting memories in the form of tomato seeds.

I've applied for my USDA small lot of seed permit so I may bring a few packets back through customs with me (limit is 50 seeds total per type of plant).

I am looking for suggestions on delicious and hard to find varieties to look for and places to find them for sale. Online is an option, because I have a friend over there I can ship to and pick up from when I am in Rome.

We will be visiting Rome, Naples, Pompeii and Sorrento.

What Italian varieties are not to be missed?
