John's Tried and Tested Tomato Collection John's Tried and Tested Tomato Collection

'Heritage' varieties may taste good but are often difficult to grow and can be susceptible to disease. We grow over one million tomato plants every year - this is John's selection of the best varieties of each type. Some are old reliables and others are the latest 'speciality' hybrids as used by the top commercial growers. All have excellent flavour.

Delivery for this collection ~ 10 - 19 March.
