I read about this tomato in an article about best tomatoes used for making Salsa Cruda (Pico de Gallo). It is a paste type grown in Mexico and used for salsa. I have found a couple of places in Canada for seeds but they do not ship to the USA.

Has anyone here grown this variety or have a source for seeds? I usually use whatever is ripe at the time including paste but willing to try anything new.

If anyone has grown it out would you please let me know if it worth searching out? I am in Indiana.

Thanks.

It does sound like a worthy tomato!

I noticed that a lot of Canadian seed companies are not shipping out of country this year. Between the high demand for seeds and the slowdown of all things postal, I bet there were a lot of extra hassles with packages not arriving on time etc. last season. Even within the country, it's been bad.

Those were the 2 sources I found also. I have even looked thru several seed banks and found nothing. Maybe it will show up one day.

Thanks,
