Does anyone know why you cannot buy these seeds in the UK?

    Presumably it's not appropriate for our climate? So many similar large chery heirloom varieties to pick from, is it worth looking out for this one instead?

    I wonder if it's worth asking Premier Seeds or Mr Fothergills to see if they have considered it.

    Go to M&S. Buy a pack of heritage tomatoes. Pick one you like the taste of, squish it and save the seeds to sow.  You don't even need to dry them off the time of year is right.

    As they’re only available in US or Australia,  I would assume they won’t grow in UK or else someone would be selling them.

    They tried them on the Beechgrove program so they must be available here.
