After reading about your trials and tribulations with obtaining seeds in the USA and feeling immensely sorry for all you guys I finally am able to appreciate fully the fact that nobody in Canadian Ministry of Agriculture had the brilliant idea to follow the suit and institute a similar obstacle course for the humble hobbyists. Maybe I spoke too soon and it is coming. In the meantime I enjoy being able to order seeds from seed houses from all over the world and always receive them with no problems. Like many other members I also enjoy stories about the gardening challenges members have to put up with in different situations. As everything in life this helps to put my problems in perspective and the wonderful advice that so many more knowledgeable than I am members give helps me to be more successful in my effort.
