Really, I think I love this man. I have 12 tomato plants this year. I wonder what kind he grew. Whatever it was, it probably was not a hybrid and was probably something considered an heirloom today! I really wish he would have said.

I think the earliest tomato hybrids were from the 1880's, so he could very well have been growing hybrids by 1910.
While it is theoretically possible Heather, there is no way this 126 year old soul mate of mine was planting hybrids. ;-)
