SALMAGUNDI doesn’t always mean pickles. One dictionary 
meaning is ‘‘a medley,” and our particular SALMAGUNDI, 
offered here, is surely that. It is a mixture of seeds of pretty 
nearly everything we offer, including Treasure Chest listings, 
and of a few we don’t as yet catalog (left-over from our own 
trial sowings). Of some kinds there will be just a trace, of 
others much, for this is where old seeds go. Seeds are mostly 
one-year old, a few older. They won’t all grow, but a lot of 
them will, and at low price at which this is sold, you can 
be pretty sure of getting excellent value in plants from it.
