Tomato Ferline
By Stephen Evans 20-09-2011
I grew these in a container on the patio. The fruit are of good quality and virtually seedless and the plants are disease free but the yield has been disappointing. This may be due to the restricted growing conditions so I will try them on the allotment next year.

Tomato Ferline F1 Hybrid

After growing tomatoes for more than 40 years and never really finding one that I could say 'this is the one for me', now I have. " Ferline F1 " I have grown these now for the third year, and can honestly say these are the best I have ever tasted. They have a texture and taste like no other, a firm but soft centre, but without the runny seeds you normally get, that puts a lot of people off most tomatoes. The taste is second to none and I have yet to find anyone that has a bad word to say about Ferline. I urge people to try some, they wont be disappointed, the disease and blight resistance is a great bonus too, especially if you have had these problems before. All I can say is try some next year, you won't regret it.
