Pink Lady tomato variety
« on: January 12, 2012, 04:14:08 PM »
Two years ago I got some pink lady tomato plants.  They out produced everything else.  Last year I waited and waited for the truck to bring more but they did not offer that variety again.  I'd like to purchase seeds but the few catelogs I've received so far do not include Pink Lady.
If anyone sees this variety in their seed catelog, shoot me a message.  I'd appreciate it.

The totally tomatoes catalog has a variety called pink girl. It is a 76 day hybrid. Sometimes different companies use slightly different names for the same tomato. I suppose you can see their catalog on line.

since this seems to be a hybrid finding viable seeds that produce the desired plant / fruit will be extremely difficult,  go to your local nurseries now and start asking them if they could help you out

Alibaba.com has Pink Lady tomato seeds.  I know nothing at all about them, but they have thousands of seeds.

I grew Prudens last year. They were tasty, but mine were pretty lumpy and had a lot of flaws.

Every pink variety I've tried seems to have superior flavor. Save your own seeds, we do. POWDERMAN.  ;D ;D

So they are selling heirloom seeds on E-bay?  I wonder if you could do that and get away without all the falderal of being a business? Wish I had thought of it.

A lot of the seed catalogs sale on ebay now. It is usually cheaper to buy from the same company on ebay, as apposed to the traditional way. Until the govt figures out how to tax it I imagine it will stay that way.
