I have the following varieties of seed to share:

Variety: Status
1. Silver River (collected)
2. Bursa (collected)
3. Turkish Izmir (expected)
4. Lonnie's Havannah (ready)
5. YTB (expected)
6. VA Gold (collected)

Status mean this: : (expected, collected, or ready; ready indicates that you have test sprouted the seed, collected is just that; you have collected seed but it is not germination tested).

Seeds I would like:


  1. African Red
  2. Bolivian Crillo Black
  3. VA Brightleaf
  4. One Sucker
  5. Prilep

I might be able to help you out with the African Red. The reason I say "might" is those seeds are the ones I am most concerned about being premature. I am going to start the germination test tomorrow.

Thanks Don, it seems to be an impressive grower.

AS Far as seed being "premature", I cut and hung to dry a lot of seedheads where the pods were still green but fully formed. All have given good germination once dry.

Let me know if you would like any of mine.

Don

A bunch of seeds going out tomorrow. All with standard letter postage. Cut a piece of bubble wrap to fit inside envelope and tapped seed bags to it. First time mailing this way, so if seed is damaged, let me know and i will resend. I think this will work well. 13897572726930.jpg

Have the P O check the weight and thickness might not be machinable and need extra postage. Or just send them and make the recipient pay the extra.:D

Did you get the see I sent?

Received the seed and sample. Have not tried it yet. Thank you.

Same envelope containing 4 sheets of paper is both thicker and heavier, and travels on a single stamp.

That's the way the Tobacco Seed Co. from England packages their seed. I haven't received any that were damaged yet.

In the last week, all seed requested has been shipped. If you are expecting seed from me and don't receive it in the next week, let me know.
