Yes
I looked for lots of packs that had a good date range. Tomato seed generally will keep for several years, just germination may be a little slow/erratic. And then threw in a couple of old seeds of varieties that may interest a few. Several flowers, hoping everyone will grow some to encourage the bees.
I also sent a mixed bag of beans - I'm sure I've posted the photos on here of the bean seeds I often sow - so you will have a guessing game on your hands - but all are varieties that grow and dry well for me.
A Situation report (doesn't that sound official?)
There are 9 of us in the swap and I asked for 10 packets of each seed from you all - that would have been enough for 11 of us...............so, I'll have 2 packets of each seed left over.
The options are:-
Send you all a couple of duplicate packets
Keep them for a random swap later in the year
Throw them away (only joking).
I don't want to list them and invite requests as that's too much work - been there, had the hassle - but if someone had a special interest in growing say chillies or tomatoes, I could send them a job lot, but, I don't want to hang on to these seeds. They need to be sown not hoarded.
I'm open to any extra tomatoes, chillies or anything but quite happy for a random swap later . You go with the least work and bother for you.
Totally agree - I don't want them...
Norfolk Grey - I see you loitering!!
Do you have any seeds to swap as I have 2 spare sets looking for gardens...................
Anyone else interested?
I'd need the seeds here ASAP as don't want to delay sending out those that I have for too long. Don't want the natives getting restless.
There's too much work to keep stashing them for someone who needs them - personally I would get rid of them now.
I loved doing the other thing - but it's too much work to expect someone to pop to the PO to send out seeds as and when someone requests them. Especially at the moment.
I am happy with whatever you decide. And very grateful for you sorting them out x
I’d be happy with extras of anything. Also in complete agreement with what’s been said, you do whatever is most convenient for you. I’ll be very happy to go along with anything.
