Giant Seeds

There are many advantages to using giant seeds.  Giant seeds are more likely to sustain damage from predators (like squirrels and birds).  Giant seeds are also a great way to discover the world of living things with your children- the large size of giant seeds makes it easy to see what’s happening in the seed as it grows (say, in a plastic baggie).

Many perennials produce giant seeds which gives them an advantage.  Typically, giant seeds will turn into larger seedlings, and these are more able to survive in less than ideal conditions.  Giant seeds are available from many retailers.
