My Review 

This catalog outdoes the most consistently beautiful catalogs with pictures of thee various seeded fruits, flowers, herbs, and vegetables in their actual environment from their base in Missouri. They have-by far-the most detailed and varied list of rare veggie and fruits along with wonderfully narrated anc accurate descriptions of the look and flavor of all edibles and the stories which go with the particular origin or the region/country the the seeds originatedd from, something not seen in most other catalogs, in print or online, giving the buyer a sense of empowerment in the knowledge that what is described will really be what is produced in the field, bed, or container in which they are grown.

How is the Service 

I found the service to be both prompt and they even send a free sample--NOT A BABY BAGGIE EITHER--of one of their newer varieties, and I had to wonder if if isn't tailored to what I purchased.

Would you recommend this to a friend? 

Yes
