You may have noticed that some varieties are gradually disappearing from the catalogue. This is not an oversight; I’ve chosen to cultivate my preferences.
This year, I’ve focused my seed production on tomatoes and a few other rare varieties that I grow in my garden and have chosen to keep in the catalogue.
The other varieties will remain available while supplies last.
Brix, flavor profiles, tastings, Sisters of Flavor and Sisters of Use will be added: all ways to help you discover what you prefer.

Birdie Red Micro-dwarf Tomato — Red, sweet & mild cherry for balconies and indoor growing
A small red tomato with a mild, distinctly sweet flavor.
What I noticed about Birdie Red is its mild, sweet flavor, with very little acidity. Its small red cherry tomatoes are crisp and very juicy, with a pleasant freshness and noticeable but subtle aromas.
Its determinate plant, reaching about 20–30 cm in height, easily finds a place in a small pot, on a balcony, in a planter, or grown indoors with a little supplemental light.
Its rugose foliage also adds a distinctive touch to this compact little plant, which can find a place wherever every inch of space counts.
And if you get the urge to start seeds, sow it indoors whenever you like. It’s an excellent way to be patient.
Every variety has its own personality. The best tomato isn’t the one that pleases everyone, but the one that finds its place in your garden, your kitchen, and your habits.
You can share its seeds within your community: our seeds are reproducible.
