I have been growing several heiloom varietys of tomatos from seed for the last 2 or 3 years since I retired. The one is called Potato Top and the leaves look like a potato leaf instead of a tomato leaf. There are several other tomatos with leaves like that, some people here locally grow one they call Old German. I got it from the guy who writes the gardening section of the Pittsburgh Post Gazette. I heard him speak at a Tomato festival here locally a few years ago. He had gotten a call from an old guy who said he had the best tasting tomato, Doug said " If you know how many times every year someone calls me and tells me that " The old gentalman said he didn't really care, he didn't even Like tomatos, he grew the plants that his Grandfather and Father had grown just to keep the seeds alive. Well Doug went to the old fellows home, and he did have the best tomato he had ever tasted. Doug got some seeds and grew a bunch of the plants. He said you would never see these tomatos in a store because the tops are all narly. He got the idea to offer free tomato seeds to anyone who would send him a self addressed stamped envolope, with the proviso that they grow the tomatos and send him back seeds that he could give out next year. His Boss at the Paper told him it would never work, and he said, you don't know gardeners.
He was up to about 5000 requests a year when Organic Gardening Magizine got wind of the deal and published an article about him. He now sends out about 10,000 seed pack a year. I will look for his full name and address and pass it on. I can save some seeds to share, but I only grew 2 Potato Tops this year. They are a Beef Steak type, 1 to 2 lb, mid to late season tomato. Very tasty,
Never doubt that a small group of dedicated people can change the world, indeed it is the only thing that ever has.
