My garden seed order went out yesterday to Gurney’s and Baker Creek in Mansfield, MO. Gurney’s was once in South Dakota and now is mailing their catalog from Indiana. I suspect the big box stores have crushed much of the catalog business.
I noted Gurney’s is offering grafted tomato and pepper plants. I wonder if anyone has experience with grafted tomatoes ?

What is the point of grafted tomatos? Great rootstock and tender tops with great tomatoes? I'm not seeing the point.

I am, however, this year going to espallier my tomato plants instead of growing them in cages. I want to see how they do growing along a wire instead of getting bushy in cages.

Darn things take up too much room in the garden as it is.

I was wondering the same thing about grafted tomatoes. I ordered most of my stuff last fall during the sales, and I save my heirloom seeds, so I don’t have much to order.

I sent in an order for some strawberry plants, goji berry bushes, blueberry bushes last week since they were on sale.
