Seeds mailed to me from the Mid-West and Mid-South (Sandhill, Baker Creek, Marianna's and relatively local SSE sources) had very good germination. For me that is 70-100%. Seeds from Johnny's and East Coast SSE sources were hit and miss. Some from Johnny's were 0% and some were 100%. From SSE sources were generally in the 10-20% germination range.
After re-reading this, what can I infer? Not much; I still think it was me and not the delivery distance, source or method. Since I had not given it much thought, it is a good thing to pay attention to.
