A Special Tomato Offer! 2 half-price plants in return for your evaluations!
We know that many of our customers need to grow small but bountiful vegetables in containers.
So we searched out and grew a group of very special, rare varieties of tomato that are specifically intended for growing in containers – Dwarf, Micro dwarf and even hanging tomatoes! They are ready this week, but quantities are limited – only 25 to 60 plants of each variety.
Customer Participant Requirement: Participants must put their name, email and variety names onto a printed sheet at checkout. We’ll send an email with an evaluation form so you can report back to us on how they did, and how they taste. Help us bring the absolute best varieties to the Front Range!
From May 14th through 19th ALL CUSTOMERS can take up to 2 to evaluate at 1/2 price.
After May 20th , any remaining plants go into our regular stock at full price.
Varieties Available to Trial WHILE THEY LAST! LIMITED QUANTITIES AVAILABLE!
