Carolyn,
With respect I think that he means Alice http://tatianastomatobase.com/wiki/Alice

I requested it in the swap in 2016 because I wanted to grow it in honor of my late grandmother, Alice. Gary was gracious enough to send me one single seed from his personal collection. I grew it and saved lots of seed, which I sent back out in last year's swap. I think it is a great heart.

I told a member here that when I find a categories list that Tormato wrote I would post it. This is from 2015 the whole thread link is http://tomatoville.com/showthread.php?t=38309

From the first post by Tormato, here is a categories list:

For now, just an outline for the categories...

Beefsteak

Black

Blue

Cherry/Grape/Currant

*Cool Weather

Determinate/Dwarf (mostly "Dwarf Project")/Micro Dwarf - I may split this into three different categories

Eastern European

Experimental

*Giant (2 lb +)

Green

Heart

Hot Weather

Italian

Knock-Your-Socks-Off

*Novelty

Paste/Canner

Pink

Red

Striped

Very Early (55 DTM or less)

Yellow/Gold/Orange/Bi-color/Tri-color/White

Tormato is getting extremely busy right about now. He disappears periodically for a few days or a week or so. Especially now when all the packages are arriving, then when he works his magic, until all the packages are sent, his appearance may be spotty.

I'm excited to participate again this year. I have most of my seeds labeled and bagged. I plan to get it all sent out by the weekend. Thank you as always Gary!

I'm OK, Robert.



I'm glad you posted, as I haven't had much time online lately. This meant that my PM's were once again maxed out. And, not having any time to read and delete each message, I finally went and hit the full delete button. So, anyone like you who PM'd me, with something important, please do so again.
