All it takes is a few seasons of gardening and finding unusual seed catalogs, saving seeds and swapping. Hey did you all know that the last Saturday in January is National Seed Swap Day? I am hosting a seed swap on that Saturday January 2016 with all my gardening friends and acquaintances...some from work, some from neighborhood, some from my business networking friends. It will be fun to see people from all the different areas of my life come together for our common love of plants.....and I will get some cool seeds.
And I just love getting people into the idea of saving their own seeds, showing them some of the more exotic things that you can grow. A wonderful seed selling site that I plan on ordering from is peaceseedlings
It's run by the daughter of the famous Alan Kapuler, really unusual stuff.
