Thought I'd try posting the question this way to see what I could find from you all. I'm looking for some good Canadian plant catalouges to order from in the spring. So far I haven't found very much...anybody have a favorite?? Thanks!

I don't have much to offer you in the way of Canadian Catalogues - they all seem to be pretty poor! (Why is that?) [dunno]
The best one I've found so far (and it's not overly wonderful seems to be from Butchart Gardens in Victoria.
If you find anything - let me know as well!
Good luck [Wink]

You can add Veseys Seeds to the canadian list. Tried them last year for the first time and their seeds are good and their prices are competitive.
Rick

Noticed Richters was already mentioned. Excellent seeds, a good selection of herbs, and
ANTIQUE ROSES!!
