PASTE

(52 varieties to choose from) UPDATED FOR 2024

 

We have separated out these varieties for their thick flesh and because their predominant use is for paste or sauce.  We’ve established this category from our data.   Classification here in our catalog does not always agree with everyone’s opinion.  Packets will contain at least 25 seeds, usually 50 to 100.
