I live in Tasmania and grow indoors. I picked up a variety called 'Louisiana 16's' from the American seed company Bakers Creek Seeds. They deal soley in Heirloom/Organic seeds. Louisiana 16's grow to 16" long (hence the name) and are still very tender. I think they cost me $5 and about the same in postage, I spent over $50 bucks on that site. Would Reccommend!
