I like Prairie Moon very much. In fact I am reading their catalog right now but they do not have any vegetables. Should I still add them?

Nan6b thanks for the idea. How about we have a list for Tomato Seed Vendors, good Pepper Seed Vendors and then another for Flowers? Not every vendor is good for all of these. Most of them have a known specialty and then a few of the other species to balance things out.

That might be the fairest. (Native plants) and (flowers from anywhere) might be separate lists, maybe.

I don't think that we should have "Native plants" because this is a global site. What is native to one country is not to another. Given that, I am using the terms Grasses and Flowers.

Speaking of native plants.
I can go out and dig up what they sell at the nurseries here for landscaping. :lol:
Up to and including fishing pole bamboo they make those expensive hand made bamboo fly rods from.
Tomato Growers supply has a vast selection of pepper seeds too.
Not all but enough to make the mind boggle.

I posted the final list in the Tomato Talk Forum.

Thank you everyone for your help. We can add more anytime. Just ask or make note.

It's a great list.

I buy a lot of seeds from Baker Creek, Southern Exposure Seed Exchange, and Johnny's Selected Seeds. If some other vendor has what I am looking for, I'll buy from them. This past October, I bought a "grab bag" from MIGardener.com (I watch his youtube videos and wanted to give him a little support). That was actually kind of fun as I didn't know exactly what seeds I was going to get (and 30 packets for $10 was a good deal). I got several things that I would definitely grow and some things (like celtuce) that I have seen and wondered about but never seriously considered growing (now I will give it a shot).
