Baker Creek has good seeds except they are, without basis, completely anti GMO and pro organic. Propagandizing their seeds as making 'pure food'. Plus being seventh day Adventists they closed their seed bank on Saturdays. But their seed catalog is pretty much the best

Sweet! My summer ppants didn't produce anything edible, maybe I should replace now already with these plants?
