If you are a member, you also get eight more pk. of seeds for free. They are available to non-members for a small fee with 50 species to choose from, all natives

quirkpod, thanks for the info. I have the marshallia grandiflora (pink) and I love it.

ncrescue: How do I get a list of the 50 species and where to buy them?

Thanks squirrelspur Karen

Just checked the website, and the list is not posted. You can only order 8 @$2 each if not a member, and the eight are free if you are. Ph: 919-962-0522. Call and ask them to fax or mail you a list. Then you can request the Marshallia which is supposed to be free with a SASE...and you send that in with your order and check. Hope this helps.
