What Gardeners Are Saying
K
These tomatoes germinated well and were excellent producers. Beautiful, large tomatoes. Can't wait to plant them next year again.
G
Saucy Lady was a free seed offer. I grew them along with a Roma type. Saucy Lady had a tremendous amount of very large fruit. They were very solid and were good fresh and in salsa and sauces. Very vigorous. Growing them again and best paste tomato yet.
C
I grew Saucy Lady for the first time last year from a free sample of seeds. They are true determinates, dropping their fruits all at once and not much after that. The fruits are deep red and meaty. You can use them to make sauce, but I enjoyed them fresh sliced from the garden as well. I liked them so much last year that i have added them to this year's regular line-up, staggering the plants about two weeks apart.
C
I grew these last year and have never found a more meaty tomato, They canned beautifully. Love them.
N
These tomatoes are amazing for taste and texture and make wonderful sauces
