Nope sorry simon was referring more to braufraus comments i've got cascade in my back yard and ironically enough grosse lisse tomatoes as well

Check ebay I can't see a shortage of cascade any time in the near future. Some people are having a whinge bout the price but they're coming down as the season wears on and what price do you put on having you're own supply for a couple of decades?
