Default Herb Seeds and Plants

About a week ago, I read about herb seeds and specialty plants and plugs for sale. Not sure if I saw this site on Tomatoville or happened upon it myself. Some of the more intriguing plants was one name Strawberries N Cream. Not sure if it was a mint, but either way I am trying to find this site. Does anyone remember this or have information about this herb farm?
Thanks
Chris

While the one you reference is interesting, I don't believe it is the same one I saw, but thanks for the link anyway!

I'm betting you took note of the one in Wisconsin at Carlin.

I'm planning on visiting customers in Milwaukee one of the days of the sale... ;-)

Nope, that's not the one either. The internet is great, but I find myself clicking onto links here and there and then later can't remember it when needed. I do bookmark, but must remember to give it a name more familiar to me like, "cool herb plants". I'll let you know if I ever find it again. By the way, the sale in Milw. looks very interesting too. But the herbs at this other site were interesting too, in that there were so many new ones, such as the strawberries n cream...it under herbs. This site sold seeds, but the specialty herbs like that above were only sold as plugs or small plants.

If you find it let me know what it was? I put herb plants everywhere I can in the garden and love the unusual and different ones.

http://www.companionplants.com/ is where I order the unusual stuff every year. I've got styrofoam cones over all the tender ones in the garden that were too big to bring inside this year, we'll see if that's enough to keep them alive.

Farmette - try Richter's seeds up here in Canada (they do ship to U.S.A.), they have an extremely large selection of mints, and that one sounds familiar to me.
