Appartient à la sérieJohn Putnam Thatcher (19)
19th of 37 Emma Lathen's. An author favorite about the annual Vandam gardening catalog that brightened up the winter so avid gardeners could dream about spring plantings. A contest for a great tomato, Numero Uno, between Standard Foods/Vandam's and little Seedmen's, worth millions. Witty, urbane, fun, and ironic in Emma Lathen style, with the usual cast of characters and John Putnam Thatcher seeing by the emotions to the money. A must read for Emma fans.

Most of the action takes place at a plant conference in Chicago. Published 1982. Sloan’s large firm Standard Foods has recently acquired Vandam Nursery & Seed Company. A small company Wisconsin Seedsman, Inc. has brought a lawsuit against Vandam, claiming that their newest star, the Numero Uno tomato, had been developed by them and stolen by Vandam.
I might have enjoyed this even more if I'd read others in the series first instead of starting with #19! ( )
