Seeds for Mary Ann

snappybob · November 12, 2008

Does anyone know of a seed source for Mary Ann tomatoes? I found the variety in Carolyn's book and it sounded like a good candidate for my 2009 spring garden. I had no idea that the seeds would be so hard to find. The only place I have found them was on the Appalachian Website but the pictures the they had did not look right. I would appreciate if someone could point me in the right direction.

Thanks

Yeh, I saw those but in the picture they looked all stripedy and not like any of the Mary Anns I have seen before. Also they have a minimum order of 6 packs of seeds.

I just looked at the picture and I think what you're seeing is a photgraphy problem. And I can't understand the disease resistance comment since that variety is no better no worse than most others re the most common tomato diseases which are the foliage diseases.

Snappy, Neil said he PMed you and I'm sure he was offering seeds he could put his hands on while I can't right now, so why wouldn't you accept his offer?
