You are bidding on 30 seeds.
Hostas never come back from seed the same as the parent. This is one of the ways that new hostas are discovered year after year. While they are not the easiest to start, I have a great way of starting seeds that works with all seeds. I have used this method many times with daylilies and morning glories, which can be notoriously slow. I am including instructions for propagation.
Seeds have been stratified and are ready for planting. If you are not planning on planting them right away, please keep them in the freezer.
PAYMENT: ALL WINS MUST BE PAID WITHIN 14 DAYS. I HAPPILY COMBINE SHIPPING FOR MORE THAN ONE AUCTION WIN.

It has to be an INTERNATIONAL money order, which your post office does provide. All bank money orders and drafts are cashable here. If you are comfortable sending cash, that works for me, too!
Please note that I am in Canada. I will mail out seeds as soon as payment is received, but be aware that mail from Canada to the U.S. can take 10 days or more.
