Solanum lycopersicum
Canabe Super is an old-fashioned tomato selection producing smooth, red, medium-sized fruits on vigorous climbing plants. The fruits have a classic tomato flavour and are well suited to fresh eating, salads, sandwiches and general kitchen use.
Dating from the 1950s, Canabe Super is a heritage selection from an era when tomatoes were increasingly being bred for dependable garden and market performance while retaining good eating quality. Today it is maintained as an open-pollinated variety for home growers and seed savers.
An indeterminate variety, plants continue growing, flowering and setting fruit throughout the season and benefit from sturdy staking or trellising.
Seed count: approximately 250–400 seeds per gram.
Approximately 40 seeds per packet.
When to Plant (Australia)
Tropics: February–August
Subtropics: August–April
Mild climates: August–December
Cold climates: September–December, after frost risk has passed
Planting / Sowing
Sow approximately 5 mm deep into seed-raising mix or directly where conditions are warm. In cooler climates, seed can be started indoors approximately five weeks before transplanting after the last frost. Best soil temperature for germination is approximately 16–35°C.
Space plants approximately 40–60 cm apart with 60–150 cm between rows. Grow in full sun in fertile, well-drained soil and provide sturdy staking or trellising for the climbing vines. Water at soil level where possible and avoid waterlogged conditions.
Due to quarantine restrictions, TAS has an 800g limit per each seed variety.

Solanum lycopersicum
Cerise is a classic Italian cherry tomato producing abundant clusters of shiny, dark red fruits weighing approximately 20–50 g. The tomatoes are exceptionally sweet and juicy, with a rich flavour that makes them excellent for snacking, salads, bruschetta and roasting whole.
The name “cerise” means cherry in French, an apt description for these small, richly coloured fruits. Plants are highly productive, combining compact determinate growth with generous yields over the cropping period.
Although a bush variety, Cerise benefits from staking or other support as plants can become heavily laden with fruit. Regular harvesting encourages ripening of the remaining crop.
Seed count: approximately 250–400 seeds per gram.
Approximately 40 seeds per packet.

Solanum lycopersicum
Cherokee Purple is a celebrated heirloom beefsteak tomato producing large, slightly flattened fruits weighing up to approximately 300 g. The skin ripens to an unusual dusky rose-purple with darker shoulders, while the flesh is deep pink to crimson with a soft, juicy texture.
Exceptionally sweet, rich and complex in flavour, Cherokee Purple is at its best eaten fresh, sliced thickly for sandwiches and salads or simply eaten straight from the hand. Plants also show some tolerance to blight.
The variety was introduced to the wider seed-saving community in the early 1990s by American tomato collector Craig LeHoullier, who received the seed from John Green of Tennessee. Green reported that the seed had been passed down through his family and was said to have originally come from Cherokee people more than a century earlier. This origin story is part of the variety's recorded history, although it has not been independently verified.

Bred during the 1950s at Hawkesbury Agricultural College in New South Wales, College Challenger is part of Australia's agricultural breeding heritage. Developed for local growing conditions, it was selected as a productive garden and market tomato at a time when Australian institutions played an important role in developing regionally adapted varieties.
