Hello All,

I'm ordering a few more things and remember seeing a VERY helpful discussion last year about low germination rates from one or two of the big seed suppliers. Unfortunately I have the same MILLION catalogs this year. I think Harris and Stokes must have been mentioned as good germination rates because I ordered from them last year. I also love Baker Creek. I tend to think Burpee was o.k. but I didn't order much because they seem expensive for the large quantities I need. This leaves me doubting two: Parks and Thompson and Morgan...

Help! I know there were several on the list that actually set up experiments to compare companies LOL
