Where to Buy AV Seeds

14 years ago

Does anyone know where I can buy AV seeds? I searched some popular seed companies like Burpee, T&M, Stokes, etc. but they don't have it. The only place I can find some is Park Seeds.

I have grown AV for 2 or 3 years.... just 2 types. This year I am interested in hybridizing them, but to save time I thought I would start some from purchased seeds.

Thanks in advance for any info.

This company advertises now in the AVSA magazine. Let us know if they have 'named' seeds.

Thanks Barbara.

I have also the FAQ from this forum, and it also has a list of sellers. Most of them are sellers of plants and/or leaves, however.

I think even if I just buy a pack from park seed and a pack from Nadeau, it will keep me busy for a while. :-)

I think Nadeau's is the seed supplier to Parks.....

Nadeau AV Seed sends promptly and also offered the soil to start the seed in. I have ordered from them 2 times. Good luck!!
