Rare seed of the month - September

Tomato 'Greek Treasure'

Rare seed of the month - September

Tomato 'Greek Treasure'

A true heirloom treasure with a remarkable story. This Greek tomato arrived in Australia by boat over 40 years ago, carried by a neighbour who brought seeds from his homeland. Gifted with a touch of secrecy - he believed sharing would bring bad luck, he thought it would destroy the productivity of his plants - this variety has since been lovingly preserved and passed down through generations. Photo: Penny Blazey holding tomato 'Greek Treasure'.

Available from Wednesday, 3rd September.
