Whew. Got this year's main seed order mailed off just the other day. Didn't have to order everything, thank goodness. Still have some presumably good seed from last year and saved a bunch of tomato seed last fall.
Among the new (to me) varieties I plan on trying for the first time this year...
Potatoes: Kennebec, Purple Viking
Cabbage: Tender Sweet, something cleverly named "Storage #4" (Who thought of that one?)
Kale: Starbor
Onion (sweet): Ailsa Craig Exhibition
Pepper: Santa Fe Grande, Peach Habanero
Squash: White Acorn, Pattison Panache Verte et Blanche
Tomato: Dr. Wyche's Yellow, Powers Heirloom, Cream Sausage
Eggplant: Florida High Bush
Almost time to start the onions!
