I am looking for stinging nettle seeds as well as any edible flowers or herb seeds. If you are looking to trade I have many heirloom tomato, tomatillo, some peppers, lettuce, carrots and I also have some turkish orange eggplant seeds drying.

Hi Smiler

I have/will have seeds for the following herbs:
*Monarda fistulosa (for tea (calming) and substitute for oregano)
*Melissa officinalis-Lemon Balm (tea)
*Salvia officinalis (Culinary Sage, many uses...)
*Hyssopus officinalis (medicinal uses/bronchial congestion, antiseptic, antifungal)
*Agastache foeniculum-Anise Hyssop (tea, flavoring)
*Nepeta mussinii (useful tea for sleeplessness)
*Thymus serypllum (culinary and medicinal having antifungal and antiseptic qualities. Tea for bronchial congestion. Useful as a household disinfectant.)
*Common Chives
*Echinacea purpurea
*Echinacea angustifolia
*Calendula officinalis (poor man's Saffron, cosmetic, antisepctic and bactericide for wounds)
*Calendula officinalis var. nana
(please research any herbs you plan to use for safety reasons)

In case you'd be interested in swapping tomtoes/peppers.....
I have the following heirloom tomatoes and will start fermenting the seeds this week for:
Manitoba
Russian Persimmon
Cherokee Green
Black Plum

Am drying pepper seeds for:
Medusa
Black Pearl (very ornamental almost black foliage also!)
Thai Hot
Habanero, Golden (not finished yet). My plants are 4 years old and peppers are maturing indoors)

I also have this one pepper that I ordered from Pepper Joe that was supposed to be Thai Sun but turned out to have been crossed with what appears to have been Bolivian Rainbow. Isn't the first time I've grown his seeds that turned out to be crossed. No complaint though these peppers were VERY prolific on HUGE plants! Flowers are purple/white with purple cast leaves.

Would be interested in some tomatillo, lettuce, eggplant and swapping some tomatoes and peppers. My email addy is:
la_raspberry(at sign)yahoo.com

Thanks

Thanks for the reply, I see a lot of seeds that I want from you, Let me post my list when I get home so you can see some of the things that you may want and we can swap.

Thanks, Dawn
