Growing Tomatoes

Anybody in the area want some free tomato plants? NJ

15 years ago

Hi all!

With my 2 year old, I did not get to plant my usual variety of seeds from the catalog this year, so I could only plant what I picked up at the garden center. But I did plant the full 3 packets which now leaves me with many of the same kind of tomato and I cannot fit them anywhere. So anyone in my area who would like some tomato plants, let me know. I live in Forked River, New Jersey (Ocean County).

I have Red Lightining, a Burpee Hybrid.

Black Russian, from seed I saved last year

Burpee's Heirloom mix-

This is a mix a several varieties all in one packet, so I cannot determine the difference between them. But it could be fun to guess what will be what!

Bonny Best (red)

Pink Brandywine (Pink)

Golden Sunburst (yellow)

Black Krim (purple)

Evergreen (green)

Djena's Golden Girl (orange)

And another mix, Burpee's Best in Show Mix, same thing, all mixed in one packet

Golden Mama hybrid paste

Tangerine Mama hybrid paste

Razzle Dazzle hybrid slicer

Italian Ice hybrid cherry

HoneyBunch currant

They are now in transplanted drinking cups.

If interested, send me an email. Thanks!
