Lorri, are those actually certified organic? I can't find anything on any of those sites about organic certification. The word "certified", by itself in a plant nursery context, often means "certified to be free of specific diseases". It doesn't mean "certified organic" unless it specifically states "organic" as well as "certified". If you want both certified organic and certified disease free, you need double certified plants (seed potatoes, for instance, often come with one certification but not the other, but some come double certified both as organic and against disease). The seller who has double certified stock available usually says so clearly. -- Rivka; Finger Lakes NY, Zone 5 mostly Fresh-market organic produce, small scale On Jan 22, 2010, at 9:28 AM, Lorri Mason wrote:
