Today was a very happy day. The reason was, This morning I had been to Dept Of Hort(DOH) to collect the seed packets. I am now Tomato Rich!!!.. I have all the heirloom varieties that are available in DOH. I think i am a seed-a-holic.
There are close to 20 varieties and all of them are attractive in their own way. I think I am going to have a tough time deciding which one to sow first. I sort of like’em all.
When I saw the list in DOH, there was no illustration on each variety. As a reason, I am writing this post to illustrate with pictures each variety.
