I receive a news bulletin sent by Vilmorin Co to shareholders and learnt a few things in the latest edition. There are nine species of wild tomatoes :
L esculentum var.cerasiforme, Solanum peruvianum Solanum pimpinenellifolliom L. parviflorum, L. chmielewskii L cheesmanii Solanum lycopersicoides L chilense Solanum penellii Solanum habrochaites Each species brings specific qualities. I suppose Joseph knows them all and makes use of their different qualities. He quotes S. corneliomulleri, did Vilmorin forget it ? I learnt too that every year more than 250 new varieties are on sale in the world. How many will still be on sale in 10 years ? Last edited by loulac; November 25, 2016 at 12:39 PM.
