Hi Cliff,

I don't have any right now. A friend from South Carolina I gave seeds to just brought me some fruit but I'm not convinced they're mature enough to have viable seed. I hope someone else can help you out.

These originate from Peru, genetically they are designed to survive extremely harsh conditions, that's why they'll set fruit here in the summer...these are truly the origins of all tomatoes.

Some place I read a really interesting history of the wild tomato Solanum pimpinellifolium. It has naturalized all over the place and created landraces, such as our Everglades Tom. And one from the Galapagos that I'm keen to try sometime. It is used in a lot of hybrid tomatoes to get disease resistance.

I don't have any atm either, but EONS in Ft. Lauderdale sells it for very reasonable. They might be close to you.

Thanks Tom.

Dianne,

I did a search for EONS Ft. Lauderdale and nothing came up. Are these initials?

Thanks,
Cliff

Sorry, yes, I never remember the name ...

Back home from a road trip but I should be able to get seeds going. I will pick them today and let them ferment. They should be dry by the end of the week. will that be ok? I also have the bird pepper for you.

Hi coffeemom!

I'd really love some of those everglades tomato seeds if you could! Thanks!
