And there are monthly opportunities for members to pick up small seedlings. Brent, I tend to be a little unstructured in my experiments myself. For seeds like this, where I wanted to be sure I got a few successes out of the process, it was great to find a resource that saved me from failing too miserably...

I have that book and have used it on occasion, but most of my seeding effort tends to be the "throw it in a pot and see if it works" type. Very nice!

The local chapters in my area all have both a spring sale and a fall sale. Doesn’t your CNPS chapter have a spring sale you could donate them to?
