FINAL 2011 SEED LISTS (updated)
I ’ve researched and updated the seed listing I posted to begin with about a calendar month ago and call up some of you mightlike to know where I buy either the seedsor in some case , the industrial plant ready to transfer here in Santa Fe . So firstI make a legendwith abbreviations for each semen / greenhouse and then put them at the end of each seed listed . Hope this makes it easier for you so you do n’t have to figure it out . I also show which tomatoes Amy Goldman ’s ‘ The Heirloom Tomato ’ book recommends which I utilise as my ‘ tomato bible’!I’ve put this in my Sir Frederick Handley Page section call up ‘ Seed list ’ at the top of the blog for belated point of reference .
