2024/2025 Tomato Spoiler Alert

[greenthumbomaha]

I packed up seeds I will not be needing from my local seed library which were requested in wIsh list's. I wasn't going to post in the thread this year because the number of some packets are very limited. No tomatoes or peppers, mostly flowers and herbs.

I was a "Bit" more delayed than usual in mailing out, and this afternoon I broke my upper tooth three back from the center. My dentist just texted, and she is out of town till after New Year. In case someone is needing something in particular from the list, I'll be mailing after the holdiay or pm me for special arrangements. Some varieties will not be listed and remain a mystery!

Lemon Balm 1

My guess is that you will have a few people drooling over their keyboards.

Wait until TLC sees this list. I almost guarantee there will be a new themed collective grow out of Cherokees on that forum, next year.

As for varieties I will not need, Cherokee Purple is one. It is likely the single most sent in variety over the years.

I will check on Cherokee Tiger Black/Cherokee Black Tiger to see how much seed I have. I recommend doing a bit of a search on which of the two wordings is more popular. From the little that I searched, almost all listings are for Cherokee Tiger Black. It's the same with Cherokee Tiger Large, and Cherokee Tiger Orange. I realize that you are just quickly getting a list up so there are upper and lower case lettering of the first letter on many words, which is no big deal, here. When it's time to make labels, I hope you can use upper case letters where appropriate. It may not sound like a big deal, but some varieties coming in have labels that are almost like a run-on sentence. If the variety doesn't have upper case letters, I don't know where the variety name stops, and the description of the tomato starts. Or, I'll get the entire run-on sentence with upper case letters.

With the rest of your list, I likely have very few, or none, of them.

Yes! I will certainly print them the correct way! This is just the way I had them hand written on my grow list and I was able to drag quickly copy all the words from my photo. I won’t send in the Cherokee purple! I forgot I do have Cherokee Peach Perfection as well to send in.
