Seed madness

Well, I'd say it's a good thing I have an acre or two of land for a veggie garden, unless of course llamas start arriving soon. Then they'll be sharing space. But I digress.

Here are some of my seed packets, exploding all over my desk:

I ordered 25 types of tomatoes (because I am enthusiastic... and insane) including a LOT of heritage types. I especially like striped and/or two-colour tomatoes... like "Striped German"!

And of course there's the colourless "albino beet":

The cats have their own favourite:

Really I should say SECOND favourite, since their most treasured garden item is my large catnip plant!

And a couple of my favourite catalogues:

Richters has fantastic herb plants and seeds: http://www.richters.com/

Florabunda Seeds has cottage garden, heirloom, and unusual varieties of seed: http://www.florabundaseeds.com/

Terra Edibles has lots of cool varieties: http://www.terraedibles.ca/

And finally we have The Cottage Gardener Heirloom Seed and Plant Nursery:

They get bonus points for their great customer service!

Check 'em out if you love to garden! They all ship within Canada, and some ship internationally.

Here's my favourite vegetable from last year: Egghead Now excuse me, I have some seeds to plant. Go watch a sock monkey music video!
