2024 Seed Sale OPEN

Fellow Hybridizers, Seed Growers, and Hosta Enthusiasts:

Hello Hybridizers

It’s that time of year, I smell a seed sale in the air !!!     A most interesting ‘seed’ year.    Lots of plants took the year off and others decided to be frugal in their seed production.   Surprisingly the 2nd year seedlings were the most productive of the bunch.   

I have had a shift in the direction of my hybridizing program, last year going for a lot of Blues and Yellows crossed every possible way.   Thus several of the offerings of seeds come from those crosses too.   2024 represented the first time I could plant seedlings in raised beds here at Millcreek Gardens, Ostrander, near our home in Dublin , Ohio.    My gracious friend Clarence Hanna offered me a piece of ground in 2023, which also produced some neat seedlings.   Thank you Clarence.

I did use two streaked plants rather extensively, one a Justice / OP seedling and the 2nd an Uptown / OP seedling.  Both extremely fertile as represented in the seed offerings.  

Please note some packs ( identified in cross label )  have less than the robust 25 seed normal offerings, which are reduced in price.  

We have changed from PayPal to Square this year.   You shouldn’t have any problems, hopefully.   This year the shipping is down to $5.00 per order.  All orders will be shipped separately so if you do a second order expect a second envelope and shipping charge.  

Usually there is a mad rush at the start of this sale so please be patient but act quickly as the first order to the checkout counter gets the pack even if it is in your basket.    I can’t help that, as the program does it automatically.   Some offerings have only 1 or 2 packs.   

Good luck to all.   Happy planting.    Thank you for your continued overwhelming interest in our seeds.
