That's the new Grow Italian and I'm delighted to see they have added more tomato varieties than when they started out..

The original Grow Italian was owned by Bill McKay,whom I knew very well,he was based in MA with his website and I always wondered what happened to him.

Maybe a month or so ago I found him at Houzz, contacted him there and told him to come to Tville. He said he once was a member here but since his e-mail he used to join was out of date he decided to reregister here, and I have yet to see him appear here in Town Hall.

Bill used to grow every darn thing he grew before he even put the seeds up for sale. When it was time to retire he moved to FL and was asking a question at Houzz that I could answer,so that's how we got back together. I had to laugh when he said they have many more diseases down here than I ever had in MA.

He made it known that he wanted to close his original website,and had several who wanted it, and it went to a husband and wife couple somewhere in the midwest.That'sprobably at the new website,I forgot to look.

So fingers crossed that his name,he said his user name would be grow italian, will appear in Town Hall soon.
