Alaskan Fancy tomato
Posted: Wed Jul 23, 2008 10:59 am
I don't know if this is the right place for this so please move it if necessary.
I have an unheated greenhouse. I sowed various tomato seeds in a propagator in the house in the first week of March then moved them to the greenhouse when I repotted them. The Alaskan Fancy (Plants of Distinction) are the first to be ready to eat by quite a long way. We ate the first last week. The Tigerella which were the first last year, are still green and so are the 2 cherry varieties.
They are a smallish plum, (5cmx4cm) with a good flavour and heavy cropping.
They were advertised as early ripening and able to withstand lower temperatures. They certainly did that as my greenhouse got very low at times and I feared I would lose the lot.
Has anyone else tried them or got recommendations for early maturing tomatoes?
