   Ciao Gayla-

   I’m guessing Kung Poo is a typo meant to be Kung Pao.

   Grub is the online handle of a gardener I know in Australia. It appeared in his garden from one “Paul Robeson” plant producing green-when-ripe fruit. He’s distributed both regular and potato leaf forms. It sometimes throws a red, so not completely stable yet.

   Sorellina: I do believe you are right about the Kung Pao. Lots of spelling mistakes in the Seeds of Diversity catalogue. I knew it was a name. I also happen to be partial to the word grub regardless. So I think it is a great name!

   Everyone dies laughing over my enthusiasm for my recently ordered “Black Seaman” tomato seeds.

   …I can’t imagine why. I can’t wait for the double takes when I start harvesting the tomatoes.

   “I’m harvesting my Black Seamen…”

   Van: I get a laugh and a roomful of snorts every time I mention ‘Black Seaman’ in a presentation. It also happens to be my very favourite determinate variety!

   I should order Black Seaman seeds just for the entertainment value!

   And I really like Kung Poo better.

   I cannot say Black Seaman to anybody without a giggle.

   I agree with Quant though, ‘Lunch Bucket’ is definitely my favourite from this list. What is it about those two words together?

   That’s it! I guess y’all know what kind of tomato seeds I’m going to order this year. Planted right next to my Peter Peppers.

    Grub’s Mystery Green makes me think of tomato hornworm caterpillars. ;P
