Seeds from Italy www.growitalian.com
(most of their seed packets have 2-3 times more seeds than American seed merchants. Catalog not much to look at)
Baker Creek Heirloom Seeds www.rareseeds.com
The catalog is a work of art each year.
Johnny's catalog is like a textbook for gardeners - lots of information on cultivation.

Thought I'd look(Google) for names of tomatoes and I found this website. It gives the names and information of every tomato that I ever heard of plus hundreds (if not thousands) more.
Thought I'd post the link to see what others think.

I found this in the Peaceful Valley/Grow Organic catalog:
...Use for those tiny seeds that are otherwise impossible to plant one at a time. Pack of two spoons contains a different size scoop on each end, providing four options for tiny to mid-size seeds (sizes are .030 .050 .075 and .100 inch). Allows you to pick up the right number of seeds, saves wasting expensive seeds, and time/effort thinning seedlings later. Made of bright yellow polypropylene for visibility and controlled flexibility. $3.99

Please don't use upper case in your posts... it's hard on the eyes, and is considered SHOUTING (rude).

Indeed, no offense at all. But you might experiment with increasing the font size in your browser, as it gets displayed on your end, and still use mixed case. That would make it easy for you to read and not look odd to receivers.
There are usually a lot of ways to do this and it takes some experimenting to find what works in your browser, but try pressing Ctrl and the +/= key at the same time. In most browsers, that makes things bigger.

I am very into keeping heirlooms alive. I enjoy "special" varieties.
I like these seed companies but I've just sort of stumbled on them and stuck with them:
Kitazawa Seed Company (has some very special/unique Japanese vegetables and herbs)
Hirt's Gardens (they get some very unique stuff like "Papalo" a great herb from southern mexico
Botanical Interests (they seem to be big on heirlooms)

Southern Exposure Seed Exchange, Johnny's and tomatofest.
I initially liked SESE's non GMO and heirloom policy and they seem active towards that end. Always had good luck with their seeds and they seem to have an active customer relations as well. Johnny's carries a pole bean variety that I like and while I am sure it is a common variety, their seeds always worked so I just never bothered to fix what isn't broken.
Growing heirloom tomatoes in Tampa can be challenging but I have had excellent results as long as I have my seeds in the dirt by New Years day, which will keep me in the more interesting heirlooms well into May/June. Tomatofest includes enough information and history that allows me to make good selections for my zone, considering.
