Just locked in my Collaboration Membership. I have been meaning to do so since you offered it. Anyone else interested better not procrastinate. Who wouldn't want awesome new varieties before anyone else.

Fred, all of the Collaborating member Tomato seeds germinated well. They've all been transplanted to 4 inch pots last weekend. Don't forget those "mexican" Yellow Jazz seeds to send over. I think it was those you found the most interesting? Dave...

I'm growing 'Pink Tiger' this year. How does it differ from the Blush variety, except with a deeper color? (had Blush last year - and it was lovely, but wanted to try PT for a change)

The flavor of Pink Tiger is more straight ahead sweet, compared to Blush which has the tropical hints of most bicolors.

I have a Pink Tiger growing, too. I grow in containers, so it's really hard for me to narrow down what actually gets planted. It was a tough choice between that and blush since I bought both. Are there 12 step programs for seed hoarders? I wanted to buy all of the Artisan tomatoes!

Please do let me know how they do for you, and if any of them stand out (good or bad).
