2020 seeds for you?

I've Baker Creek Strawberry Spinach (Chenopodium capitatum) and extra Baker Creek Salad Burnet seeds. The Strawberry spinach wasn't robust enough for this climate. The Salad burnet is doing just fins, but there's only so much i can use. Might be more interesting in alkaline soil than in my acidic clay.

Also, Tronchuda or Portuguese kale - https://www.rareseeds.com/store/vegetables/kale/tronchuda-kale -- if the plants take off this spring i'll have plenty. If the plants go to seed, well i am growing them hoping they will be perennial. And if they are freeze killed, sigh.

I've tried their strawberry spinach in Denver before and it did not even sprout (or something ate in the middle of the night)
