I recently hosted a seed swap here in Daytona Beach. I have lots of seeds left over from the swap and I have put together 2 packages of 20 seed packs each to giveaway. Twenty seed packs will go out to 2 winners. The packs include a mix of flowers, vegetables and herbs. Some of these seeds are from plants that I have grown including Seminole pumpkin and Lemongrass. Others are from my friend the Wooden Bee of the Backyard Florida Gardening Blog. Others are from seed or garden companies who donated seed packs that were too old to sell. These companies include Green Winters of Ormond Beach Florida, Garden Hoard of Livonia, Michigan, and Moonlight Microfarm of South Florida. Finally there are a bunch of wonderful seeds that were generously donated for the swap by WinterSown.org. There are still a bunch of seeds here for the community garden, so I am hoping to find good homes for these seeds. The 20 seed packs are:
Seminole Pumpkin
China Aster
Gloriosa Daisy
Thai Basil
Mini Red Turks Turban Squash
Rose Mallow
Lewis Flax
Mixed Lettuce blend
Bibb Lettuce
Marmande French Heirloom Tomato
Aurum Cherry Tomato

ReplyDeleteWow....super collection of seeds!
ReplyDeleteSo many favorites -- heirloom tomatoes in the vegetable garden. David Austin roses by the front door. And peach trees in the back yard.
ReplyDeleteHere's one of my favorite gardening links for Florida gardeners: http://www.floridata.com/
ReplyDeleteI have tried Lemon Grass before, with limited success. Have any tips or suggestions for growing it in colder climates?
ReplyDeleteI would love to try White Milan Turnips in my garden!
ReplyDeleteFloridata is great Susan.
ReplyDeleteTroy, I am sorry I have never tried to grow lemongrass in a colder climate. It just grows like mad here even when neglected. http://aquarianbath.blogspot.com/2013/01/lemongrass-has-gone-to-seed.html

ReplyDeleteAwesome! Will spread the word. ;)
ReplyDeletei dont know what my favorite is.. we do love tomatoes here
ReplyDeleteI FAVORITE garden vegetable has hands down got to be PEAS! I love fresh pea pods straight from the garden. I remember summers as a child, purchasing them by the bagful from the vegetable stand down the street. Forget about the penny candy, I wanted pea pods!!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite thing to grow are tomatoes-all types. I am a tomatoholic!!

ReplyDeleteI love tomatoes, especially the ones that burn your mouth they are so acidic!
ReplyDeleteI think my favorite vegetable to grow is tomatoes. There are so many varieties, and I've had a reasonable amount of success with them in my garden. :) Thanks for the giveaway!
