Last year I bought Burpee Seeds (flower) from Wal-Mart. When I went to plant them, I noticed they had been packaged in France. A month or so later, beautiful foliage, but not one bud or flower.
I managed to find some more seeds on the shelves (Martha Stewart), also packaged in France. These did produce some puny blooms toward the end of the season.
How do I avoid having this happen? I am in Northern Michigan, so the season is short and seed stock is not re-ordered.
Is France the problem? Lowe's just opened but I do not know what brand they will carry.
Any suggestions would be welcome. TIA.
