I don't know how many seeds he sent me of all of those since they were almost all new ones that I wanted to send to the vendors where i usually send seeds for trial, but I'm sure he must have more in his stash, as he always does, and that for listing in the 2017 public seed offer here at Tville,

And there's another rub since I have no idea when that offer will go up.I still have all seeds produced here at home for ones produced in 2015, and the seed producers sent the newest ones produced in 2016 directly to X.

I will be putting up a seed offer preview,NOT the seed offer itself, in the Off topic Forum soon and that might help.


And I'm so behind in packing up seeds for the seed producers for this summer it's terrible. I've let them down badly,but who knew what would happen when I was hit with that lousy virus,not just me,but at the local school and the community as well. But when you are as old as I am and also a diabetic the immune system goes way down,

For Karen and Imp only,if you need a few seeds for this summer,e-mail me, you both have that em addy,give me your address and I'll try to get a few seeds sent to each of you.

And then you can both see how"pimpy" sized they are.

Carolyn, who will be so very happy when another person will be taking over for the 2018 offer and doing the hardest part but I'll still be the one to source seeds,put up the germination and Fall performance threads . Then I can sit back and color in my adult coloring books, read all the many hundreds of books I have here as well as have time to read a lot of the many magazines I sub to as well,from the Smithsonian,to lots of history and archaeology ones, and many current news ones as well. After over 30 years of doing seed offers here and there, well, I loved doing it,but enough is enough.

That tomato does look interesting. Quite nice dark flesh.

Carolyn, I don't have your email or mail address anymore, when things happened, I lost that computer and a lot of information. If you would, please do pm me with both.

Thank you for the pictures, Andrey, it does look good.

I don't know if this counts as black, but it supposed copper color with green gel. I am growing it for the first time. So far, the plant is larger than my other currant varieties. http://jandlgardens.com/catalog/inde...roducts_id=256

Nancyrhul, yes I think that could be a black with the green gel

I have a lot of seeds for the variety Russian Mini Yellow (It's not black) It is Indet. that prolifically produced little tiny white/yellow tomatoes that are less than a half-inch wide/tall. They are very sweet, and you need to pick them daily. Karen, if you would like some seeds - send me a PM.

Other than growing them myself, the only other info I have about them is from post #16 on this thread http://www.tomatoville.com/showthread.php?p=329357
