My friend bought them for me when she was over visiting family. She told me they were common commercial varieties. She didn't go over the names with me, she just translated them roughly for me. She did say they were common over there, that you could get them in any big box store. The only one of those that I really like is boets. I am only OK with Severnaya Koroleva. I didn't think they were heirlooms, but I liked that they were open pollinated and I thought well if they taste good then I could keep some.
I know what you mean by translations, my friend kept telling me about "manymeker" tomatoes which made me laugh because they were "moneymakers." But yes, I will use the correct names. Thank you for giving me the correct ones. |
