Live Seeds Enclosed!

Seward, AK(Zone 3b)

I haven't seen anything in the posts about irradiation, so I thought I'd bring it up. As you probably know, the US mail has been irradiating it's mail in some areas to prevent the transmission of Antrax. I have asked around, and it appears this process will sterilize seeds. It was a concern to me, since I had ordered seeds from 13 seed companies by the first of January! It was interesting to see stickers on the arriving envelopes that stated, "Do Not Irradiate! Live Seeds Enclosed". Since then, when trading seeds by mail, I've made a point of adding the info to the front of my envelopes...WZ
