Just posted in the VA forum that I am looking for someone who is growing dictamnus and would appreciate some back up seed if my three little inch high plants don't make it through the winter. I know you have written about saffron. It grows beautifully here. Can it be grown as far north as PA? I was told that the bulbs were brought to Cornwall even before the crusades, even before the Roman occupation, when the early Phoenicians traded them for tin, one of the metals needed to produce bronze. The other special trade I have is sprouted paeonia rockii seed which I have been hoping to trade for fen dan bai. Let me know if you are interested in either.

Hi Kenny, My surprise package arrived today. What a wonderful variety of seeds. Thanks for all of your hard work in organizing this. In case anyone else reads this note, I too received a package of "spear" seeds and would be very interested in knowing more about this plant. To me these look like peony poppy seeds and judging from the volume in the package, this has to be from a plant that produces an abundance of seed. It would be great if the person that contributed the "spear" seeds to the swap could post a note with more information on the plant...maybe a picture, so we can get information through the name that plant forum. Thanks so much....Heather

We already have over 400 packets of seed in the kitty for this year's exchange. There's a list of some of them on the link. If you'd like the chance to get some of these exciting seeds, why not join us this year? Details are on the link. Here is a link that might be useful: International Seed Swap - Kitty 2012

My list of seeds is on the european exchange list.What do I have to do to request seeds from the International seed exchange.
