Heather: All I can say is WOW and a big THANK YOU! I was ill at the time I needed to send my seeds and could not manage to get as many packets out as I had planned. So, I was so surprised when I opened my mail today to find an incredible amount of seeds. Thankyou Heather for undertaking this every year...you must be very organized and have a very big heart and thanks to all the people who donated seeds. I hope I will be in the position to do that in the future.

You guessed right. I don't have a cat. I have a little dog named "Pepper"...in case anyone else sees humour in that I didn't name him..he was adopted with that name in place...and he loves eating hot peppers too !

He's a little shih tzu. He was my mom's dog, but he came to live with me when she passed away last year. When she first adopted him, we couldn't believe our eyes....he was sitting on her patio munching on a hot pepper he pulled off of one of her plants. I have never seen a dog do that in my life. He picked the right family to adopt that's for sure. He can have hot peppers galore around here

I got my package already! Thank you so much Heather. I almost got everything I wished for plus some nice surprises! How fun it was to open up the package and sort the goodies! I had to look up a few varieties and learned something new. I especially like packages with descriptions on the varieties, which had me thinking of doing the same for next year.
Heather, you are the best organiser!
Thanks to fellow Tvillers for sharing your treasures with others. Wishing you a great gardening year next!

Hot peppers and a little dog....

I don't want to make any jokes about that combination, otherwise I might get on Heather's shih t(zu) list.

I agree with new west, some of the packaging with descriptons very nice, and nice bonus surprises. Being new to this board and to seed saving I almost backed out of this swap. I did an october germination test to make sure seeds would germinate, and they did!! I know it's not rocket science, but when you have never done it before you are unsure, and I would hate to send seeds that failed. I am so glad that I participated, thanx again heather for all you have done!!!!
