Thanks for the link, I'll have to see about international shipping since I am in Germany. There was a supplier here I was planning to order from since I'll be buying other seeds from them anyway (semillas.de)
I find the explanation totally plausible, but I do think it would be a bit more honest if they called it the "Baker Creek Datil" or named it after the farm they got it from or something. Either way, I appreciated the prompt and earnest reply.
Hello, I found this thread through Google while researching why my Baker Creek datils looked different than others online.
I couldn't find if anyone had actually just contacted them, so I did, and got a prompt response.
That more or less agrees with the more charitable explanations in this...
