I am putting  alist of chilli sources together for my Ozzie booklet on chillies
This is what I have so far.
 Would anyone like to suggest anyone they have had especially good dealings
with? or who have a very large chilli seed list?


Appendix
Sources
This is avery personal list there are many chilli companies and seed souces
throughout the planet.  These are ones I have some experience of.
Food Dehydrators
Green Harvest
Green Harvest 52 Crystal Waters Permaculture Village, MS 16 via Maleny,
Qld. 4552
If this  address is too long ring them on their free line 1800 681014 and
ask them for a copy of their great catalogue. Seeds Australia
The Fragrant Garden, Portsmouth Road Erina N.S.W. Australia
Chilli Seeds Overseas
The Redwood City Seed Company
Craig and Sue Drenman.  The Drenman's business is run out of their house or
was when I visted them 16 yers ago. Seeds and plants  drying, seed packets,
strange old agriculture journals are everwhere. I felt just like I was
home.  their cay=talogue is a collectors item, full of facinating useful
and edible rarish plants  craig  even has his own Pepper Hottness Scale
which the rest of the planet seems determined to ignore.  unfortunaly they
refuse to come into the 20th century and use credit cards. Cosequently
sending small amounts of money to theim by draft is expensive.  they do
have aweb site, but you can't order from it.
Tough Love Chile Co
I have swaped information and seed from Dave at Tough Love Chile Co for
some years. I have found him generous and knowledegable.  (Its funny that
you can count some people as friends after a number of Emails.  It must be
great for axe-murderers)  His web site is a good place to start your Chilli
education.
