Dave's Garden and Butterfly and Hummingbird friends,

Some of you may have already seen the recent thread about New Seed Packets in the Saving Seeds forum. Found Here:

[HYPERLINK@davesgarden.com]

The offer still stands to create some more seed packs that are most popular to us.
It's a pretty cool way to trade your favorite seeds with your friends.
There are already ten (10) packs available, found here:

[HYPERLINK@davesgarden.com]

And I've sent Dave eight more that are yet to be posted.

The new eight are these:
Asclepias curassavica Scarlet Milkweed
Asclepias tuberosa Butterfly Weed
Coreopsis grandiflora Bigflower Coreopsis
Coreopsis lanceolata Lanceleaf Coreopsis
Coreopsis tinctoria Plains Coreopsis
Cosmos sulphureus Orange Cosmos
Gaillardia pulchella Blanket Flower
Tithonia rotundifolia 'Fiesta Del Sol' Mexican Sunflower

Once Dave gets them posted, I'll post a notice back to the original thread if you'd like to watch that thread.

In the mean time, I'm starting up making more.
If you'd like to offer your suggestions on new seed packets, then just add your suggestions preferrably back to the original thread. Please include a DG Plant File link if available to help me narrow my search.

I'll also be asking you for permission to use pictures of the flowers whos packets I'm working on.
What I typically do is go to the DG Plant File page and look for what pictures are available.
Once I find one that would work, I'll Dmail you privately for permission.

Thanks in advance for your help in this fun project.

As mentioned, the seed packets are not perfect, and may have some typos, and possibly some wrong information, as a plant knowledge database, I am not, but I'll do and try my best.

Have a great week everyone.

Paul
