Our Feedback
Dear Victoriana,
Just to let you know that I have received my tree (yesterday) It was left outside on my patio. I did not hear the courier ring the bell, so you will have no signature. My sister in Wales received hers a few days earlier. When I unwrapped it I thought you had decorated it for me, with all the shredded pieces of paper! What a good idea. We are both very pleased with the quality and packaging. Also the large buds already on them. We will both definitely shop with you again. Thank you so much.
Kind regards,
June Chadwick, Seaton, Devon
Supplied as a packet of approximately 15 seeds.
This Product is Available Now.Called 'Egyptian' as it is purportedly descended from seeds found in an Egyptian tomb. As the more accepted origination of tomatoes is from South America, perhaps it is more likely the original seed was found in an Inca pyramid, and along the way the story has got a little confused! All a bit of fun really!
A reliable variety for protected growing, this produces heavy trusses of plum-shaped fruits that are deep red in colour. The flesh is extremely dense and meaty and has a lovely rich flavour. Back to 'that story', if the Egyptians had made pizza they would have used this for making the base sauce!
