I have been looking for Moruno tomatoes in Tesco but have not been able to find any near here. Maybe they are not on sale this year. If you could spare a few Moruno and Perino seeds I should love to try them. I don't know whether you have tried Kumato( previously sold in Marks and Spencer). They perform very well,keep well, ripening well indoors at the end of the season. When fully ripe they are a red/bronze/green colour. They are reputed to be good at all stages of ripeness and in fact I prefer them still fairly green. I have some spare seed if you would like some in exchange.
