Another choice but not nearly as varied as Yamagami's (by 36 selections) is
Long's at Westgate West's Prospect branch. I picked up a few six-packs of
beautiful Heirlooms and Romas for my attempts at growing a decent batch of
toms this summer. There were a couple other varieties but I can't recall
their names now.

Another nursery of like-reputation is Sunnyvale (about eight miles up
Sunnyvale-Saratoga Road. Last season's purchases finally stopped producing
last week.

BTW: Have you noticed at "Woolworth Garden Center" (the actual name escapes
me now) on De Anza Blvd. (behind Minton's Lumber) has even fewer choices
than last year? Sad. Really sad.
