Seeds, roots, books

If you go to those pages and right click on the pdf file at the top of the page, then choose "save link as" you can download that pdf

The downloaded pdfs can be searched by pressing Ctrl & F then entering a significant search word (as can the pages of the online catalog sections), which is one advantage over a paper catalog, if you already know what you're looking for. Searches are usually more successful if you just enter one word from the variety name -- that way the search doesn't fail because of an extra space in the name or a spelling variation.

I typically read through their catalog when it first comes out, but then search their listings many times a year when I've heard of something I think I might want and, if I find it, I add it to my Sandhill list for use when I get ready to place an order. Sometimes I look at the list and decide I have to be a little realistic, and don't order everything on it . . . but at least that way I don't usually forget to order something that I really wanted.
And you know darn well that in my above post that it WAS You I was referring to.

And thanks for the direct links, etc.
