I'm in the middle of a move right now, but I hope to, within a couple years, grow a large enough crop to make a large quantity of seed available through Seed Savers or other means. <br /><br />Christinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12607821498331135305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30498647.post-32544270388277411142014-10-13T04:15:24.669-07:002014-10-13T04:15:24.669-07:00Some of the purple tomatillos I've seen descri...Some of the purple tomatillos I've seen descriptions for require direct sun exposure to color up.

We live off the grid etc. on the mountains (4,200') of far northern California. I'm captivated by your deep purple tomatillas. Any chance of participating in your seed development ... or are we too high and cold? My green did well (big crop this year) so they do grow here.<br />Wilma Dibelka<br />wilma@dibelka.us<br />http://ccf.dibelka.usAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
