Seed buying

I keep a wish list in a notebook of any varieties I want to get. Sometimes it's a vague "dwarf sunflower", other times it's a specific variety that had something which appeals to me.

With flowers, I'm always looking for something natural looking as I generally don't like double flowers or super dwarf plants or extra large flower heads. I prefer the plants to have a pleasing overall proportion. I also love varieties that are scented.

With vegetables I look for vigour and productivity of course, but also visual appeal. I really like having different colours of tomato, squash and french bean. I want to have something that isn't typically sold in the supermarket.
