Just got back from my first Seedy Saturday. It was very vegetable-oriented, which I expected, and very crowded and noisy, which I didn't expect. But I got some great native plant seeds:
From the North American Native Plant Society, at the unbeatable price of 50 cents a packet:
- Eupatorium perfoliatum (boneset)
- Eupatorium purpurea (sweet Joe Pye weed)
- Helenium autumnale (sneezeweed)
- Lobelia syphilitica (great blue lobelia)
- Verbena stricta (hoary vervain)
- Zizia aurea (golden Alexander)
From Wall Flower Studio Seeds:
- Coreopsis lanceolata (lanceleaf coreopsis)
- Gaillardia (blanket flower)
I was pleasantly surprised to find that the venue, Artscape Wychwood Barns, includes a greenhouse, where the trays of seedlings lifted my sprits.
Here are lists of all the plants mentioned in this blog.
