Hello everyone - amateur gardener and wannabe botanist here.
This year I want to start breeding my own varieties of plants (never did it before) so I've been collecting interesting and superior plant seeds for that purpose (despite limited land).
I'm always open to seed trades, give aways and grow-outs. I plan to become a master gardener.
Edit: I also put a trade post in the wanted forum in case anyone wants to peek at that!

Welcome aboard! Sounds like you have come to the right place. Hang out with us, get to know us and let us get to know you and your interests. You'll be getting into something soon!
I've been working on a new selection our of a cross between Cherokee Trail of Tears and Tennessee Cutshort (pole beans) as well as growing out a sweet potato from seed, which should be a unique result. So far I only have one plant from the sweet potato seed.

George Hi George! I want to breed a productive blue bush bean and an American nu na bean copy. That post on the sweet potatoes is really interesting. Does Duck Creek Farm ever sell its seed? I know the good people at AlanBishop and OpenSourcePlantBreeding would be real interested as well as others.

I believe Gary has sold roots from some of his seedlings. One, which I recall, is called Bugs Bunny. Seeds are scarce enough that I doubt he would distribute seeds.
