Please keep in mind that this program is for scientists and
researchers, not for the average gardener.

Quoting http://www.ars-grin.gov :
"In 1990, the U.S. Congress authorized establishment of a National
Genetic Resources Program (NGRP). It is the NGRP's responsibility to:
acquire, characterize, preserve, document, and distribute to
scientists, germplasm of all lifeforms important for food and
agricultural production."
