Description

The listing, Grandma Dana's Ruby Red Chard (Seeds) has ended.

Auction is for a full tablespoon of seeds for this rare strain of Red Chard. It is cold hardy to at least 10F, will tolerate repeated soil freezing and thawing, and is heat and somewhat drought tolerant when going to seed. And the germination rate is quick and high. It produces compact leaves, perfect for the small garden or containers. The flavor is settled in the medium range of what chard has to offer--neither too strong no too wimpy. For more information see my blog post: http://harvestsgardeningsecrets.blogspot.com/2012/09/grandma-danas-red-chard.html

As you can see from the photo, I have enough seeds to list these a few times, but when they are gone--that is it. I will not be maintaining this strain--so I hope a seed saver who will love this particular chard will take it on and keep it going.

Shipping is by US mail, as shown in the photo. Shipping is $1.65 and includes tracking. Shipping can be paid by US Postal Money Order or by PayPal. If you prefer to send a SASE with your name and address in the two and from position, that is cool also.

International shipping will be for exact charges payable in US funds through PayPal. Please check with your post office or customs agent to make sure it is legal for you to receive seeds from the US before bidding. Any import or customs charges will be the responsibility of the winner.

I generally pack orders for which I have addresses and shipping paid by the evening before, on Sundays and Tuesdays and ship on Mondays and Wednesdays. This prevents your plants from being stuck in a hot truck over the weekend.

If you don't win this auction and would like me to relist, either here or on eBay be sure to let me know. If you would like GIN let me know before there are any bids.

All my plants are grown in without chemicals of any kind; smoke free household.

Happy Bidding!

This is my first year of serious gardening and hopefully next year will be 3 times larger as I am prepping another 8 garden beds and hope to do more seed swaps next year as I get more in the hang of gardening.. It's been a good year for tomato's and lettuce... I started fruit trees and vines.. Hopefully I can get more of my neighbors involved in local backyard growing....

Hey all you Listia Plant and Seed Swappers--I am a garden writer and I am planning on writing an article on Listia Plant Swaps in December. Since I have no budget---I am hoping some of you have friends with great digital cameras. If you would like to be interviewed and if you can get a publication quality photo of yourself with either some of the plants you have offered, of some that you have won (or both) that would be awesome. Your friendly photographer would at least get a photo credit--and possibly a little tiny check . . . Might turn out to be a great way to promote your auctions!
