Opinions on Ed's Millenium and seed sources?

jxw_1992 · July 17, 2020

Hi mater lovers:
A friend of mine grew 30+ varieties this year and he let me know that his Ed's Millennium won first place in terms of both taste and production. It beat his pink, red, yellow and black Brandywines, does anyone else have experience growing this variety? And what's a good seed source? My friend got the start from a local nursery and can't find a seed source either.
TIA!!

I don't think that this tomato is available commercially. You may find that someone here has some seed. It is a strain of Brandywine. My suggestion is for you to ask your friend to save some seeds for you or give you a fruit so that you can process your own seeds.

jxw,

The Santa Clara Garden Association holds an annual plant sale in April in San Jose, where they sell the Ed's Millennium seedlings. I agree it is a great tasting tomato and it will be in my rotation again next year.

Hi, just wanted to see if anybody had Ed’s Millennium seeds available, SSC is out of stock, and I'm a few hours away from the Santa Clara plants sale.

Thanks

Same. I'm interested as well in seeds.

Have plenty to trade if needed.

Thanks in advance,

Greg

Some Listing has them listed as Heirloom Tomatoes.
