Store seed racks are cunning, Jeff Lowenfels writes. When Alaskans see them we think that with a few small packets of magic seeds we can plant acres worth of gardens.

This is my annual warning to be careful when you are around seed racks.

The next thing you know, 10 minutes have passed and you find yourself with a handful of seed packets. You go to look for your spouse. When you find her, she gives you that look which says: “Do you really needs more seeds? You just spent a weekend ordering them from catalogs and, by the way, you have lots stored in the fridge that are left over from previous seasons.” Busted.

Don’t get me wrong. Seed racks are wonderful, as long as you don’t rely on the packet pictures in any meaningful way. Instead, the information you need is on the back of the packets: Is the resulting plant an annual, perennial or biennial? How tall will it grow, and what is its spread? How many days do you need for the seed to go from germination to maturity? All of this is important information you need to know before you buy any seed.
