How I love the seed catalogs that are starting to come in the mail -and then placing a GIANT order online... Just found two great new seed catalogs if you are into growing plants from seed: http://www.hardyplants.com and http://www.rareseed.com. The first is Specialty seed company that has all manner of flowers perennial, annual and native including grasses. You've never heard of most of these things... Not for the beginner, although there are great sowing directions on their very basic seed packs. The last is Baker Heirloom Seed Co. - one I had never heard of until now. Their stuff is worldwide sourced, all organic and all heirloom, open-pollinated plants. Wow so many veggies I was drooling... Great source of unusual items for the veggie gardener but not many flowers - a good selection of herbs however. Check them out!
