Dwarf Sweet Sue almost sold out
I only have 5 packets of "Dwarf Sweet Sue" remaining!
Thanks to the project for having allowed me to introduce this variety, and special thanks to Ted (ContainerTed) for growing out the seed I offered for sale. Much appreciated! Steve |

Thanks much, you ordered the last pack I'll mail those out tomorrow. A little story: Two days ago two neighborhood kids came over and wanted to know if they could pick more of the "gold" (Sungold F1) tomatoes that I had let them pick earlier that week. I said "Sure, go ahead." I went back to work transplanting tomatoes and after awhile I turned around to see both of them holding a small piece of a yellow tomato. I suddenly realized they had picked and eaten my first two "Dwarf Sweet Sue" tomatoes that I had earmarked for seed production! All I could do was ask them how they tasted. They both said "very sweet"... so, I think you are getting a very good tomato! Steve |

I just started with my seeds from Steve two days ago, and with the Sweet Sue just yesterday.
I can hardly wait to try them all, but at the moment it is too cold here even to think of the summer. Had to push all the snow from my greenhouses today, again! Simone |

lol that's a good story...Those kids know how to pick them huh... I ordered Dwarf Rosella Purple tomato seeds from you last year and they were really good, compared very well taste wise to the Black Krim tomatoes I regularly grow. I'm looking forward to trying out more Dwarf tomato varieties this season. ~Alfredo |

Alfredo,
when the Sweet Sue is as good as the other Dwarfs you will love it. I will grow at least 2 plants of each dwarf variety. The only worst thing in 2012 were the mites, which extremely loved the dwarfs. Simone |

Can't wait Simone...Nice...2 varieties of each Dwarf variety huh...I'm looking forward to see how they grow (new for me this season are Dwarf Sweet Sue, Dwarf Wild Fred, and Perth Pride, regrowing Dwarf Rosella Purple, and the much older New Big Dwarf again). I'll make sure to follow up and see what you think of each of them. Good luck with those mites btw... ~Alfredo
