The listing, Unknown & Excess Edibles - Garden Seed Collection 5 - 8 packs has ended.

Still cleaning out excess seeds. NO tomato or radish seeds in this one, sunflower and beet seeds instead.

1. Parsnip seeds - variety "Petrik" - They are traditional white roots. Parsnips are biennial, just like kale.

They make leaves & a usable root the 1st year. However, if a root is NOT harvested, & left to overwinter, the plant will send up a flower stalk the 2nd year of growth, & fresh seed can be obtained from them.

Parsnip seed, has a low viability life, of only 1 year.

So, if you like parsnips, & don't want to keep buying seed, it's advisable to leave at least 2 roots unharvested & left to overwinter EVERY YEAR, to set fresh seed for you the following year.

Also, Parsnip seed generally has a low germination rate, so I included 40 seeds. 5 out of 10 sown, came up in my germination test.

2. Red Russian Kale

3. unknown hot pepper - received in a trade - I don't like hot peppers.

4. unknown squash - the label "flew away" as they were left to dry.

5. Cantaloupe - Hale's Best

6. Sunflower seeds

7. Rhubarb - MAY OR MAY NOT GERMINATE - I harvested them because they were there, but didn't germination test them yet.

8. Detroit Dark Red Beets.

The seeds will come in a reused bubble envelope.
