Lavgirl, I don't believe germination rate has so much to do with variety as it does with the seed itself. Seed received in a trade is basically a crapshoot. Age of seed, saving techniques and other factors are players in the viability of seed.
I recently received seed in a trade and the first four seeds I planted none germinated. Planted four more and they all germinated. You tell me. Ami
