    Yes if there was problem with a shipment they have usually called me on the phone or emailed me. That is why I can not understand this long silence. They could ask if there is a new updated account that would cover a shipment. I had a network grower in The Netherlands this past summer and they...

    I think the USDA wants everyone who wants to get seeds from outside the country to have a small seed lots account. This has happened to me when someone in Australia sent me a bunch of beans. I think 14 varieties. The box came I opened it and inside was empty except for a form place in the box by...

    I like the verbage on some of your bean descriptions. If you don't mind I would like to lift a few words of yours here and there and use them on my site. I can see a snap bean you have that I would like to get sometime. I would even pay you for it. It's called Gartengluck.

    I don't have any germination record for Fat Man anymore. As I packaged new seed for the freezer I deleted some of the old records. I think @Decoy1 grew the bean successfully this past summer. Correct me if I'm wrong. I don't have anymore Fat Man samples here. They were all given out to two...

    Since you got the same seed again that you started out with. It might be a sign that the bean is stable. To prove it, you need to grow it out two more times to make sure there is no other genetics in their lurking to pop out and surprise you. An even better thing to do would be to grow that bean...

    The seed I sent to you was grown here in 2014 and kept in the freezer all the time. It probably germinated like brand new seed. I had acquired it from a Canadian member of Seed Savers Exchange. Often times a bean with this pattern grown here doesn't display as much white but more red. What I am...
