Oh my, what a list. I feel so greedy. Every variety I google seems promising and tempting. I would like to grow them all!
I tried to contain myself but failed miserably. Here is my too long wishlist: Pepper: Ajvarski Arroz con pollo Early jalapeno Fish pepper Jimmy Nardello (so excited to try this one!) Numex twilight Pink habanero Purple jalapeno Beans: Trionfo Violetto (Tormato, I know a package of beans don't fit in a regular envelop, but would you manage to put 3 or 4 beans in? I'll grow them out not to eat but to save seeds for a harvest the year after) Flowers: Bee balm Calendula orange porcupine Other vegetables: Radish purple plum Lettuce Parris Island Cos Lettuce Winter density Tomatillo purple Kale Red Russian Watermelon orangeglo Winter squash: Delicata Early butternut Gold nugget Lofthouse buttercup Seminole |

Oh no, I caved. I thought I would not add anything to my stash but looks like I need (as opposed to want) these if you still have any of them.

I was surprised too when my mum said they have wild orchids growing in the lawn. Small flowers, but precious.
Funny that her parents used to grow tropical orchids for a living in the greenhouses in their yard. |

Finally it arrived. I haven't checked to see if it went through Canada first. I remember you requested 2 tomato varieties back around August, but I don't remember what they were. |

I'll likely start shipping some packages next week, concentrating on newbies (who may be understandably impatient), southern states, and foreign countries. I'm hoping I can get almost everything done in the next two weeks.
I'm still waiting on one or two packages to arrive. It's been one of those years where many people have had a lot of disruptions going on in their lives. |

Question about the seeds from the 2016 MMMM, was anyone able to grow Zatta melons - the seeds were old so germination was iffy.

It looks like my seeds didn't make it to Tormato's mailbox. I'm sorry and disappointed about that.I can't believe how unreliable the post service still is in 2017. I won't give up though and will give it another try next year.
By the way...merry Christmas to everyone. |
