Garden Seeds & Growing
Garden seeds from American suppliers
Build a kitchen garden, grow flowers for the table, or give a gardener something to look forward to. Explore vegetable seeds, herb seeds and flower seeds, including varieties identified by their supplier as American-grown. Choose by the plants you want to grow, the space available and the conditions in your own garden.
Southern Seeds, now Seed Therapy, began in 2019 as a family-run business founded by Ryan and Kim Dorn. The company works with U.S. farms and offers seeds for gardeners across the country. Its American-grown options include the tomato, pepper, snow pea, thyme and zinnia packets compared below. Growing origin varies by variety, so check the individual listing when choosing seeds grown in the USA.
For a coordinated planting project or a gift, explore seed collections. Browse the wider Garden & Seeds collection for more ideas.
Choose seeds for the garden you have
Compare packet counts and growing habits
A seed packet is the beginning of a planting plan. These five varieties are listed as American-grown and offer different ways to use a sunny garden. Counts are approximate; follow each product's directions for sowing, spacing and care.
| Seed variety | Approximate packet count | Planning consideration |
|---|---|---|
| Moneymaker tomato | 50 seeds | An indeterminate tomato with a tall vine; allow room for a stake or cage. |
| Emerald Giant sweet bell pepper | 30 seeds | A warm-season vegetable; the supplier recommends starting indoors before transplanting after frost. |
| Oregon Sugar II snow peas | 25 seeds | A cool-season crop for direct sowing, with a short trellis for the vines. |
| German Winter thyme | 200 seeds | A low-growing perennial herb; its fine seeds need light to germinate. |
| Lemon Meringue zinnia | 100 seeds | An annual flower for sunny beds and cutting gardens, reaching about 30–40 inches tall. |
These products are seeds for planting. A packet count does not promise the same number of established plants: germination, thinning, weather and growing conditions affect the result. For assortments, compare the number of varieties as well as the total seed count.
Match the season, sunlight and space
Check mature height and spacing before filling a bed or container. A climbing tomato needs different support from low-growing thyme, while a packet of flowers may need more room than its small size suggests. Compare sunlight, drainage and the length of your growing season with the variety's requirements.
The USDA Plant Hardiness Zone Map guide explains winter cold zones, which help with perennial selection. Your zone does not provide a spring frost date. Use local frost information and the packet's temperature guidance to plan annual vegetables and flowers.
Follow the variety's seed-starting directions
Some seeds suit direct sowing; others benefit from an indoor start. Use the recommended depth, moisture and temperature rather than treating every packet alike. Provide suitable light as seedlings grow, and gradually acclimate indoor-grown plants before moving them outside. University of Minnesota Extension's seed-starting guide explains the process; adapt its regional calendar to your location.
Choose a thoughtful gift for a gardener
Match the gift to a favorite crop, an herb garden or a flower-growing project. Check which varieties an assortment includes and whether the recipient has room and time to grow them. Explore American-made gifts under $25 for more budget ideas, or garden and outdoor products for an accompanying present. Check each item for included supplies.
For someone who enjoys the garden beyond planting, consider yard decor, decorative garden flags or bird feeders and houses.
Garden seed shopping questions
Are these seeds grown in the United States?
The five packets in the comparison are specifically identified as American-grown. Seed Therapy also offers some varieties grown outside the U.S., so check the origin statement for the exact variety you choose. An American supplier's location alone does not establish where a seed crop was grown.
Which seeds should a beginner choose?
Start with a few plants you want to grow and can accommodate. Compare direct-sow instructions, support needs and time to harvest or flowering. Choose varieties that fit your sunlight and local season rather than ordering solely by packet size.
Can I plant every packet at the same time?
No. Cool-season peas and warm-season peppers have different planting needs. Some seeds also require light, soaking or a cold period. Follow the specific packet; check whether a listed maturity period is measured from sowing or transplanting before planning a harvest.
Are all seeds organic or suitable for every region?
Check the individual listing for any organic certification and growing requirements. Heirloom or non-GMO wording does not itself establish organic certification. For flower mixes, review every included species and consult local guidance about suitability before planting.
How should I store unused seeds?
Keep unused packets cool and dry in a labeled, closed container. Retain the variety name and planting directions. Seed longevity differs by species and storage conditions, so avoid assuming every leftover packet will perform the same way next season.
What should I check before ordering a seed gift?
Confirm packet counts, included varieties and any destination restrictions. Review delivery options and charges at checkout, especially when buying from multiple suppliers. See the shipping policy and return policy, or contact BuyAmerican with an order question.
