“You are right - can't leave out all of those other colors of tomatoes!”

Yes and please don't. I have seeds to a number of different
varieties i’d be happy to send out pro bono if anyone is
interested.

I just signed up at Tomatoville.com

I have been growing two types that are supposed to be Heirlooms - Marion and Arkansas Traveler. I need varieties that can take the southern heat.

The local lore here in my town is that the Marion Tomato was first developed many years ago by a local grower who lived in the small town of Marion, just about 2 miles up the road from my house. I have not been able to confirm this. One thing for sure it does extremely well in my garden and produces some wonderful huge fruit! Great tasting and very prolific!

Do you have any information about the Marion Tomato or know where I might look to find out if the lore is right?
