The question that you asked me is something that I have been working on for a few years. If you periodically type in "Cucumbershop.com" into your browser you should (in the near future) be able to contact a stateside seed supplier.Jayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12461600014446853297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1414505450356893387.post-60936197444432022182013-06-02T22:46:31.751-07:002013-06-02T22:46:31.751-07:00Can we get these seeds stateside?Can we get these seeds stateside?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1414505450356893387.post-66130249086615363892013-05-28T15:27:39.464-07:002013-05-28T15:27:39.464-07:00Hey Giuseppe - I agree with you.

I thought I was going to be growing the blotched Massafra but all of mine are a very solid dark green color. I have another bag of seeds I'll try later.<br /><br />I am so glad to hear that the tomatoes are doing well. I would love some pictures. I would be happy to add them to this blog with a note that they are from you.

I'm having difficulty growing carosellos this year. We are at the end of May and I'm still using plastic shelters in the night to save them from cold. I envy your dry climate.<br />Your Siletz, Neptune and Hahms Gelbe tomatoes are growing well. I'j.sparwasserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11297981957544621601noreply@blogger.com
