Sourcing some specific tommie varieties

Posted by Mabb Melbourne, Aust (My Page) on

Hi everyone,

I'm looking for a local source for the following:

Kellogg's Breakfast
Marianna's Peace
Brandywine OTV or Suddeth

After reading everyone's best tommie lists I really want to try these three but haven't had any luck with Diggers, Eden or Green Harvest which seem to have the largest variety of veggie seeds. One of them has a "Brandywine" another "Brandywine Pink" but not the two specific varieties that y'all rave about. Nobody has KB or MP at all.

Where did you get your seeds from originally?

FYI, my list is now confirmed:

San Marzano
Principe Borghese
Broad Ripple Yellow Current
Jaunne Flamme
Cherokee Purple/Chocolate
Whichever 2 of the following 3 I can get seeds for:
Kelloggs Breakfast
Brandywine OTV or Suddeth
Marianna's Peace

We have room for 14 plants and I want at least 2 of each.

tia

HI, Mabb. I have all three with me here in Italy. Someone closer to home is also bound to have them, but. If not, I'll stick some in the international post!

I have a pleated example of Marianna's Peace, which was delicious but not the original smooth-shouldered fruit. I have seeds for Kellogs Breakfast and Brandywine Sudduth and Brandywine OTV. If you PM me with your address I'll send them ASAP. Still haven't got around to sowing anything yet.

Finbar, thanks also for the offer :-)

Just for future reference, Kellogg's Breakfast is available from Phoenix Seeds in Snug, Tasmania.
