Don't know where that piece of misinformation came from. Tomato seeds are on the 'allowed seed' list, as long as they're clean, packaged correctly so on and so forth. In any case, seeds for the variety mentioned are available commercially in Australia!


Not wild about octopus but I do like pickled baby octopus.
