Seed trade list updated.

Alrighty. As Summer winds down, its time to start looking forward. Here's a quick break down of what I've got, and a quick mention of a few things I'd really like to find.


Unless otherwise stated, all seeds were harvested 2017 or 2018


Have:

**Broccoli - Waltham 29 (Heirloom)

**Carrots - Danvers Half-Long (Heirloom 2016 from bulk package...still 90+% germination in a quick paper towel test)

**Pepper - Sweet Banana

**Pepper - Jalapeno

**Pepper - Red Lunchbox

**Sweet Basil

**Green Spider Plant (the somewhat difficult to find non-variegated variety. Seeds are viable. So say's the baby spider plants I just gave away that came from these seeds)

possibly more to come...check back.


Seeking:

**Pansies (or honestly anything else as cold hardy as pansies for the sake of a bit of winter color)

**Snowdrops

**Winter Aconite

**Anything else that blooms before Spring or in super early Spring (more food for my earlier mason bee species).

**Blueberry seeds. Yes blueberry seeds, but specifically seeds from blueberries NATIVE to the eastern US...hillside/lowbush, Elliot's, etc. These aren't the most common in stores, I'm not holding my breath on finding them, but if you're also interested in them...you'll want to keep an eye on my list next spring. I found a source for these native plants a few months back and hope to have a fist full of seeds after next springs harvest of my 3 new Vaccinium pallidums. Would still love to get my hands on some seeds from someone else that has them though...future genetic diversity and what not).

**Blackberry seeds. Native to eastern US a real plus, but I'm less picky about them than I am about the blueberries.


I'm in zone 7.


Look, if there's something you want, but you don't have something on my list of wants, don't assume I won't trade. I honestly don't turn down too many offers. My view is if I don't want it for myself, I'll just trade it on to the next person, or run a grow out to collect seeds to pass on next year.


--Before anyone says it, yes I know there are easier ways to get the berry plants...both take from cuttings fairly easily. I've got some of each that were produced this way. Want to mix it up a bit.
