African Tago or Togo questions
Of the seeds that I have successfully started, by far the most vigorous grower is one that I received named "African Tago" (or it might by African Togo - label was smudged). At least at the leafing out stage it appears vigorous and the stems seem hardier than my other plants.
I have looked to find information on this variety and I have been unable to find ANYTHING. Is this a made up variety? Considering how much information I was able to find out about the other varieties that I bought, I find it curious that nothing is available on this particular one. Any thoughts? elaine:? |
Skyfire Garden Seeds has a "Togo Trefle":
[quote]Togo Trefle (organic): 80 days. Very productive in heat and drought. Small tomato from Togo in West Africa. Pretty pink-red tomato with fruity taste. IND. Organic, grown in Kansas. 30 seeds[/quote] |
Thanks!
Thanks Dice - that was exactly the information that I was hoping for.
Sounds like it will work well here. Elaine:) |
I grew Togo last year and found it to be one of my new favorites. It always looked good no matter what kind of weather we had. The flavor was much like Brandywine.

Great!
I am making my final selection of what to grow out. I have about 30 varieties to choose from, and room for only 8 varieties. I think that this will be one of them. It was the flavor that I was hoping for. Brandywines do not do well in the heat here.
Thanks! Elaine |
Does anyone know where I could buy some AfricanTago seeds? I would love to grow some! :)

I think the best guess was that "Tago" was a mis-spelling or
smudged label, and that the variety is actually called Togo, possibly with some suffix like "Trefle" (Skyfire Garden Seeds). There is also a "Togorific", which is apparently a cherry tomato: [url]http://tatianastomatobase.com/wiki/Togorific[/url] |
