Hi John
You can grow all the common tom vars like Grosse Lisse, Roma, Rouge de Marmande, that you will find as seedlings at any local nursery....and you can grow pretty well any var of tomato from seed (there may be the odd var that will not do well as far south as Wandin but pretty much any var will grow there (if you do it right)...and there are thousands of varieties
You should look at catalogues by Phoenix (Snug in Tas) and Diggers (Sorrento Vic), New Gippsland seeds (Silvan Vic), Greenpatch (organic, Taree NSW), Eden Seeds (Gold Coast Qld), Select Organic (Gold Coast QLD) and Greenharvest (Organic,Maleny Qld) who between them have hundreds of varieties to select from
cheers

HI PETER, THANKS FOR THE INFO. JUST BUILT MYSELF A LITTLE HOT HOUSE. I BOUGHT FOUR WOODEN FRAMED FULL GLASS DOORS AND PUT A LASERLITE ROOF ON IT. 4 DOORS COST A TOTAL OF$25.00. 3RIGHT ANGLE BRACKETS TO KEEP DOORS OFF THE FLOOR $ 1.50 EA & $20.00 FOR THE LASER SHEET. A CHEAP HOT HOUSE THAT WILL LAST.
JOHN
