The garden hopes to be able to improve their collection and perhaps others by exchanging seeds. They have very few at this time but will be adding to it. In each case the locale and the date of gathering will be shown on the packet. Generally they will give about 20 seeds per packet depending on the size, availability and demand!
They will be willing to go into the field and find seeds that you may request!
Please contact Charles E. Dills 1371 Avalon San Luis Obispo CA 93405 or e-mail at cdills@charter.net.
The seeds will be listed roughly in order of collection. The date will be given where known.
Some seeds are at present in small quantity and are asterisked as reserved for propagation. Inquiries invited.
