Marina just PMed me and said the seeds were in Moscow, she's tracking this resend one and it took about a week to get to Moscow from where she lives in Russia, so I told her to let me know when they hit the US shores and also told her that I had no more fingers to cross and was moving to toe crossing.

In the meantime I couldn't wait any longer so spent yesterday packing up seeds for Craig, who raises all my plants for me and separate packs go to Lee and Shoe in NC and Neil L in IL. And those were all sent off this AM. Shoe has said that if any new seeds come in if I can get them to him by mid-April that would work, bless him.

So as soon as I know what my list will look like I'll post it and all I can say is that there many many new varieties that will be new to all or most.
Carolyn,
I sure hope the re-sends get to you! I wonder if the originals were confiscated? I can't believe it took a week alone to get from Marina's house to Moscow. I won't complain about the postal service here again.
I'm looking forward to seeing you list. I'm sure it will be quite the unusual assortment.
Remy
