there are alot of websites around from seed dealers.
However, if you want to propogate your own start collecting as soon as the flowers die off and the seed pods are "ripe". keep the seeds in envelopes that are labelled (a bit obvious but worth a mention). In late winter it sometimes helps to let the seeds experience cold for a few days in a fridge or in a freezer for about 12 hours. Sow in early spring in trays, cover with brown paper and keep in a warm, dark place. In a while you should have plenty of seedlings for next year!
A couple of informative web-sites are RHS and www.bbc.com/gardening...lots of info in both.
hope this helps!

Seeds that flow instantly interior the floor Corn Potatoes Peas eco-friendly Beans Seeds that want starting up Pumpkins flora Cucumber Peppers Tomatoes Squash Watermelon i began pumpkins from a seed packet very last 12 months in little styrofoam cups with holes interior the bottom. I followed the kit and it labored precisely like it became meant to. Are you fertilizing your seeds? yet some 10/10/10 fertilizer and stick with the teachings. My females like to play interior the backyard....the older (3) likes to plant the seeds, the more youthful (2) only performs interior the airborne dirt and dirt. in addition they favor to help harvest it. we are interior the frame of mind of making a storage and no matter if it truly is waiting in time i'd attempt starting up some more beneficial seeds this 12 months, next 12 months I plan on having the husband construct me a lean to eco-friendly abode on the fringe of the storage so i am going to commence all of them.

why not just save the seeds, just let the seed pods dry, then put the seeds into labelled PAPER bags or envelopes and keep then till next year.
