Well, that looks very interesting and I have never grown it ... or eaten it either, I don't believe. Thumbs up As long as it's good and frost-hardy, I'd like to try it.

What would you like to trade?

You can send a private Treemail, if you'd prefer. I know you have a very good trading reputation. Green Grin!

Treemail it is ... but don't beleive what you hear!

I am slow, slow slow! I got involved with something that takes more time than I have, and I'm hugely behind in all my projects.

My suggestion is to wait until I say I've shipped, and THEN send something back.

Any 1-2 of these, or tiny quantitites of 2-3 kinds, whichever you have more of.

Mustard Greens 'Red Giant'
Mustard Greens 'Tendergreen'
Kale 'Red Russian'
Swiss Chard 'Rhubarb'

I'll check tonight, but I'm sure 50 seeds would be no problem.

SongofJoy, I have Par-Cel seeds if you are interested. That the best substitute for celery. It holds up really well in zone 5a.
