I've tried to add some identifying characteristics....however when all I had to work with were the leftover "cubes" that had been cut up, sometimes all I could write was a colour. Sometimes the contents of the baggies are so squished already there is no way to tell, and may be a variety that I am not familiar with. So feel free to correct any misspellings or names...or attribute a source. If you can even let us know from where you got your's it would be great too. For those that saw the seed envelopes from last year, I try to keep a provenance when possible listed on the envelope. I can also tell you that some of the varieties have limited seeds from what I can see so far.

I'll let you know when the seed are ready. I'm going to make some sauce tomorrow out of the meat of those I can. Too many people around in the house today to be able to do it.

The mystery black that was on the same plate as the snow white when the pictures were taken was no longer there when we went to bag up the leftovers for seed saving. So I have no idea what it looks like or where it went. (the mystery black was on the White Beauty plate)

Thanks for the corrections, Mark. And for the record, I usually write Burracker's Favorite without the "u"...that was just a typo on my part that I didn't catch. Transcribing from the plates to the baggies to the list I made sometimes may have left spellings behind too. There is one I haven't a flipping clue what it says. (PLRL tals ????? - not sure what the name is - can't read the handwriting on the baggie)
Very good work Z.

I marked your list above which are from me or Jerry Powarski. I think we brought 41 varieties--42 if you include Olive Hill which does not appear on the list--it was on the corner table marked "OH." Plus an Earl of Edgecombe that never got displayed and 2 peppers--Jaloro, a yellow jalapeno, & Yellow Peru (capsicum baccatum--check my spelling.)

You can edit your original post and your private notes. You can use his name as a source for those marked MK/JP.

That's pretty good... Richardson is pink not red... sorry, forgot that one.

Stump is pink too. I'm not sure if Jerry brought Stump or not, I know we grew it at his place but maybe somebody else entered it. Jerry never told me everything he was bringing. If it matters, I can ask, or Remy could check all those ziploc bags in the box behind the table to see if there is one numbered "33."

Did anybody else think that Kellogg's Breakfast looked quite yellow/golden for an ORANGE tomato? Do we know who entered it to find the seed source? It looked even lighter than Aunt Gertie's Gold.

That colored text didn't work I think because of the number instead of the color name. I changed it to the word red in my quote above. I would try cross reffing to the pics to see which one you may be missing. Maybe it's from the entries [corner] table that was the pic that I didn't have the whole name?
