A neighbor gave me seeds from a plant she called 'Grandma's tomato', but the packet had no name.
She said she'd saved them for 20 years, but now I'm not sure if I should plant them or stick with known varieties. Has anyone else gotten mystery seeds they decided to trust?

Oh man, I was totally the person who would only buy brand name seed packets. Then my uncle gave me some beans his dad always grew. I almost didn't plant them because it seemed risky. Tried a few hills anyway and they were the best green beans I've ever had. Now I always make room for at least one mystery plant. You might get a real treasure.

Wait his dad grew them? That's literally heirloom gold right there!

Just plant them and see what happens. It's not like you're betting your whole garden on it. Worst case you get some weird tomatoes.
