I've accidentally germinated 4 or 5 tamarillo seeds. Honest, they *fell* from the fruit, and *fell* on to kitchen roll, then they dried off, and then this spring the *fell* in to a pot that *fell* in to the propagator, and now, what am I to do with 'em?

Anyone?

Might they "fall" into a greenhouse?

If they do, they'll have a soft landing on all the tomatoes and chillies and salads and things I can't even remember

I should probably seek professional help

If Res is coming to the Follow A Strange Northern Man in to the Essex Undergrowth With Nothing But a Bunch of People You "Met on the Internet, Officer" Day, you could arrange a mini swap? Or you could post him some and let us know how you get on.

Now everyone, back on my topic or else (er...or else what...I'll sing...then you'll be sorry).

P.S. It's a good job your greenhouse is full already, cos if you had planted it in there, it would be wearing the greenhouse as a hat Yes it get a bit big!

I don't know really. I have a lot of seeds left, but they are all boring normal stuff. All my fancy tomatos have been sown. I could bring some tomato 'plants' with me.

Black Toms
Brandywine Toms
Tigerella Toms

I am going to have a few 'spares' I think.

I am also waiting for my Essex Wonder Toms to germinate, that Tahir recommended, But I won't hold that against him
