Tomberry Seeds?

bambinaUK

Does anyone have or know where I can get Tomberry seeds/
Apparently Sainsburys sold the tomatoes themselves, but I can't track down the seeds.

As far as I can tell the only way to get seeds for these was to buy the fruit from Sainsburys and save seed from them (they are true to seed not hybrids so you can do this). For whatever reason no-one is selling seed for the home market yet.

Don't know if this is the same thing, but Thompson & Morgan have got Tomato 'Tomatoberry Garden F1' £3.40 for 6 seeds?

Unwins: £3.99 for 10 seeds

Marshalls: £2.95 for 10 seeds (that's a better price!)

Not sure what postage costs are for any of these though.
Good growing!

Just found this too:

£1.75 (don't know what quantity of seeds) - delivery free.
Don't know anything about the company though.

Hi
Have you joined the Vine the (Grow your Own ) forum?
They have a seed swap section where you can ask for/swap seeds i asked for these very seeds a couple of weeks ago & someone had them saved from last year & has offered to send me a few.
Others had put there names on the list too, you could add your name to it you never know you could get lucky & someone else may come forward to offer some.
It's worth a try!

Thanks for all the advice people.
None for sale in Sainsburys at the moment unfortunately.
Will have a look at those seed sites.

Thanks for the suggestion about the other forum, I will now try to find it
