helena Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 I do mostly flowers, but we've had good luck with the few veggies we tried. http://www.reneesgarden.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBG580 Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 Open-pollinated? What does that mean? It means you can save the seeds and they will grow out exactly like the plant it came from. Hybrids do not produce true seed, they are usually some combination of the hybrid parents and you don't know what you will get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrissiK Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 Honestly, the best luck I've had is Burpee seeds on the stand at Target or Walmart in the gardening section. I've ordered seeds from seed catalogs, and maybe it's just me, but they're expensive and don't always germinate well. Oh, and you wanna hear a funny seed story? My bil opened a package of the hot peppers you get when you order take-out pizza and threw them in the dirt in his flower bed and they germinated and he got a nice variety of hot pepper plants.
