Seeds and Seed Sources

In the spirit of experimentation and exploration concerning plants (what else?) PlantExplorers.com has been working on the development of these two seed projects...

  • The Seed Collectors' Seed Store
    The first of what we hope will be many botanical garden seed stores, the VanDusen volunteer Seed Collectors have a wonderful collection of of seeds from popular old favorites to some are and unusual species.

  • Twining Vine Garden is constantly evolving to include a greater diversity of native plants as well as rare and hard to find species and varieties from around the world. Our selection is slowly growing to include heirloom tomatoes, magnolias and peonies.

  • Artful Garden Seed Store is a little seed store based in New Orleans in the deep South. Seeds of organic and heritage vegetables with a few other interesting plants thrown in for good measure.

Sometimes it's next to impossible to find an adequate subject plant when you need to photograph it, so the only option might be is to grow it yourself. This is not the answer for all plant photographers, but the truth is that many of us are already avid gardeners, so the idea of adding a few more seeds to our annual order doesn't seem like such an extraordinary thing.

So, if this year you decide to give the traveling a rest, you might want to check out some links to a few seed companies and put down roots, for a season or two at least.
