Scott, great finds!

I do hope that you will retain the original names of these varieties, and not have them circulated under their translated names!

The 'non-Armenian' packets are Russian. I can help with both transliteration and translation.

Pic 1: top right: Черри - Cherry. Vendor: Vitas. I guess it is just a non-name or generic cherry tomato?
Pic.1 bottom right - Золотая Россыпь - Zolotaya Rossyp' - Vendor: Vitas. The name means something like Gold Mine

Pic.3
Персик - Persik - Peach. Vendor: Gavrish
Апельсинка - Apelsinka - the name means sometime like 'little orange' (referring to a fruit). Vendor: Gavrish.
Богатырь - Bogatyr. Vendor: Udachnye Semena.
Ледяная сосулька - Ledyanaya Sosulka - this is probably a translated name of a well known radish 'White Icicle'.
