Yesterday I planted some more seeds in the greenhouse. Looked all
over for the Burpee Golden Zucchini I bought last August. Not found.
Today we were out and about so stopped at a couple of stores and no
luck. On the way out of town DH saw Tractor Supply and pulled in.
They had them. I looked at the price, $1.79 on sale at $1.34 for 19
seeds. I checked the Burpee site when I got home and their price was
$3.95 for 25 seeds, plus shipping of course. Got 2 packages.

If anyone is interested, Burpee has a Hybrid cantaloupe seed that is
powdery mildew resistant.
Didn't see it last year or the year before. My cantaloupe usually get it
in late July. Zone 6
New experiment for the garden.
