This is the list of Kozula's tomato seeds, which are at disposition now and will be distributed: Dark tomatoes: 24. Striped Violet/purple 125. Striped Pink Big F4 126. "Black" Mild F3 ] 127. Red F4 128. Dark Violet F3 129. "Black" Firm F3 130. Striped Dark Violet F3 Other tomatoes: 14. Megabuncher/Megatrusses F4 (growout from red cherry Truskawkowy F1) 18. Yellow plum F4 meaty and not as sweet as 134 36. Pink Rounded MIX F4 131. Paste tomato (determinate, colour gene) F5 132. GWR (better taste than look) [/ 133. Striped Pointed Pink F4 134. Striped Yellow plum F4 sweet and fruity taste 135. Striped Pink Plum (tasty, soft) F4 136. Striped Yellow flattened F4 137. Striped Pink MIX, indeterminate, but taste and consistency may be diverse or segregate F4 138. Striped Pink meaty, big, mild, fusarium resistant F4 139. Striped green F4 (very few seeds) Numbers below 100 are the same as last, but possibly a further generation. Everything from 125 is new from this year. Seeds were not sent to the States yet. It will probably be necessary to send a SASE, and Darth will post further details. I will try to post further pictures or links.

I will return to it shortly, but my plan was to take "other colours" first and then the dark ones. Now there are pictures of most available tomatoes, but I couldn't make it work for #135, probably because of my own clumsyness and maybe also because the photo wasn't made by Kozula herself but by someone else. Kozula will look for pictures of the remaining varieties, but there is no guarantee. The tomato JT showed isn't represented, and I don't know why, but it may have contained too little seed or none. Apparently I got #135 to work now, but it "cost" me an extra post in the process.

Those fruits posted up top... Im speachless.....what? 200 seeds per fuit? They look Great!!! Do tell.... #37 is not available this year, as Kozula is trying to make both market and amateur varieties from it, but the other ones shown in the first post will be as soon as I send and Darth receives the seeds. The number of seeds in each fruit is very variable (and dependent on both genetic and evironmental factors).

So, are seeds for these available Is that what this post is about? If so, how can I place an order? Seeds will be available here thru Darth, as soon as he receives them from me. I just got the last ones (#36, which I think is crucial), and I'm more or less ready to send them.

Can you please post what leaf type to expect? All Kozula's breeding lines (and so seed distributed) are (supposed to be) RL, and only some F1s (like the ones I received) can throw PLs in the F2 and further.

Seeds arrived today thanks greatly Dean There have only been two "serious" name suggestions so far: Megabuncher for #14 by loeb, basically a translation or parahrase of Kozula's own words. Green Toad for #132 (or #139) by myself, the name of an actual amphibean (bufo viridis), which indicates that the tomato changes to a prince/delicacy after touching someone's mouth.

I thought it was frogs that turned to princes. Putting toads to one's mouth sounds like something pv did when he was hanging with Hunter S Thompson. Maybe Frogs can tell more? I never got to know Hunter S Thompson while he was alive, but it's good to know PVP did.

Gunnar, did you grow any of Kozulas crosses to hearts? I noticed they weren't offered. Also, perhaps you could have her produce more of the green when ripe stuff, as that was the one everyone wanted, and of course the dark colored one with the stripes. She didn't breed new hearts, which were fiercely criticised by some members, who had bad luck with them, but I specifically requested #142. Albenga x Kosovo F1, 168. Bawole Serce from market x Anna Russian , 176. Pink indeterminate heart F2 – from cross #36 x Anna Russian for distribution now in February (maybe it's wrong, that I didn't request #155, but someone else did I'm sure), and still have these left from last winter/spring: 47. pink globe Ff x Anna Russian, pink, intermediate between heart and "ordinary" pink 71. pink beefsteak Ff x Grightmires Pride, pink heart 75. Anna Russian x Kalman, pink heart 84. Anna Russian x Orange Strawberry, red heart 114. Bawole Plantico x Orange Strawberry, red heart Now maybe hearts will experience a renaissance here, and I'm sure I'm not the only one in favour of them. The Black Pear x Orange Strawberry Kozula sent to me may even throw a dark (chocolate/brickred) PL heart, but that may require more plants than I'm able to grow out. I'm all in favour of getting F1 seeds in the hands of American breeders, and I know Jankiel is for it too, but we have to run it thru others here.
