Welcome to Garden Web and the Seed Exchange! Since you are just starting out, I suggest you maybe reply to some of the many more recent sase/sasbe offer threads to build a seed trade list, as it is against the Instructions here to ask for things for postage (sorry). Look for threads that say SABE, SASBE, or FREE You might want to respond to those that are offering more than one variety, to get the most bang for your postage cost. Read the Offer and post to the thread per the offerer's instructions. You will then likely be asked to mail a BE (Bubble Envelope). These can be found at WM, the Dollar Store, CVS Drug Store, Office Supply places, etc. Depending upon the size of the envelope, you may be able to cut a large one in half and make two envelopes. Be careful though that you do not make them square, as opposed to rectangular, as that will cost extra postage when mailing it both ways. Include in the envelope whatever you are instructed to send by the offering member. It usually includes A list of the agreed upon seeds (if they were agreed upon) or whatever the offering member requests of you. A note with your member name, and your real name A label of some sort with your name and address to be used when the envelope is mailed back to you. Postage STAMPS...NO POSTAL TAPES as they are only good for mailing from the PO where they were purchased The amount of the postage should be the actual cost the offering member thinks will be required, considering what they will be sending you and in what quantities. Often members have in mind other goodies that will be included along with what has been agreed upon, and that will affect the cost as well. Communication is very important. If you do not feel the postage cost is a good value in exchange for the seeds you are to receive, feel free to just decline the transaction by emailing the offering member. No explanation is necessary as to why you have changed your mind. There may be other instructions as well that have not been addressed above. The actual cost to mail your empty bubble envelope to them (with whatever has been asked for in their instructions) should' be 80 cents. If you are charged more than that to mail it, then chances are 'your' Post Office is overcharging in error. The very minimum amount for the member to return that envelope with smaller seeds in small to average quantities will be 80 cents, or 2 stamps to keep it simple. Please send the envelope out in a timely fashion, or let the member know if it is going to be delayed. Please let the member know if you have changed your mind about the SASE/SASBE offer. Often seeds are put aside for these sasbe offers, and if members don't follow through with mailing out their bubble envelopes, those are seeds being just tied up, when they could have been shared and enjoyed by another member. Once you receive your goodie package please let the member know that they arrived at their destination. Last, but not least, try and take a moment to post a review for the offering member at the Rate and Review Forum. I have included a link to the forum below. Instructions for using the Forum are at the top of the main page there. Please be sure and do a search to see if there is an existing review for the member. If there is, please post to it. If there are numerous review threads, please post to the one that has the most replies. Happy Gardening! If you have any questions, feel free to post them on the Conversation side of the Seed Exchange. Just click the link [Switch to: Conversations] found above the list of threads.

Hi.. I have alata these seeds lol Would you trade for some st Valery carrot? -sb

They grow wild in many of the local parks. I live across the street from South County Park in Boca Raton and there are dozens of them growing there. Collect some seeds and grow your own for free!

I can't help you with your question but want to say how healthy your plants look. Do these represent a summer's growth? Mary
