More Seeds Coming!

 Hello Gardeners

Last month almost 400 packets of seeds found new homes! Wow!

So, needless to say, the seed drawers are getting empty. I am working on packaging more seeds from the seeds I have at home. I will let youknow when the seed drawers are replenished.

But I have few pea, pepper, lettuce and herb seeds. So if you are ordering seeds from a commercial seed company perhaps you can purchase a seed packet for the seed library.

The seed library needs open-pollinated, non-hybrid seeds. 

The easy to save seeds (peas, beans, lettuce, tomatoes and native plants) are the best to purchase as these seeds don't cross-pollinate easily and usually come true to the parent plant. When I say 'they come true to the parent plant' I mean if I grow a Black Giant tomato the seeds will most likely be exactly like the plant I grew. In contrast, if I grow a hybrid Better Boy tomato the seeds may or may not be viable and if they do grow the fruits from the plant will probably NOT be similar to the original plant. This is because hybrid plants need genes from two different types of tomatoes to produce the characteristics of the hybrid plant.  

If you can't find a particular seed at the seed library, please let me know. I may have more at home or if it is a popular variety I'll try to purchase some of those seeds.
