The NEW
DENALI SEED COMPANY sells packet garden seed at:
www.bestcoolseeds.com
OUR MISSION: To supply
gardeners with quality, farm fresh seed at a reasonable price and only offer
varieties that have proven their performance in Alaska's far north climate.
All varieties sold by Denali Seed Company have been field tested in Alaska
to prove they perform well in short season, cool climate areas and under arctic
and sub-arctic growing conditions.
DENALI SEED COMPANY, a LOCAL ALASKAN
COMPANY, was based in Anchorage
from 1977 to 2017. Upon the passing of our founder, we closed our Anchorage warehouse and ship directly from our packing facility in Michigan, where we have packed our seeds since 1980.
For over 43 years Denali Seed Company has supplied
garden seed to Alaskan gardeners.
OUR
QUALITY and SELECTION has never been BETTER. Denali Seed orders are shipped
directly to you from our environmentally controlled warehouse in ANCHORAGE.
Our seed is never displayed in a showroom where it can be EXPOSED to the FUMES
from HERBICIDES and other GARDEN CHEMICALS that can LOWER SEED GERMINATION.
When you can smell chemical fumes they can be harmful to seed, seeds are living
plants.
ALL SEED shipped from
DENALI SEED COMPANY is NATURAL, NO CHEMICALS are used and seed is UNTREATED.
Denali Seed DOES NOT SELL seed for GENETICALLY ENGINEERED varieties commonly
referred as GMO's.
We offer SPECIALITY VARIETIES for Alaskan gardens.
We sell varieties that were bred in and for Alaska and others developed in
simular climates throughout the world. These varieties are available only
at Denali Seed Company.
Alaska's Giant, O-S
Cross Cabbage
Fairbanks, Alaska
O-S Cross Cabbage is a high-quality, bolt-resistant hybrid
that produces enormous flat-topped exhibition-sized heads that often attain
70 plus pounds when grown under Alaska's long summer days. This variety has
been known to grow to 25 pounds under the shorter days found in the continental
48 states. It is a show-stopper in any garden and a county fair winner. These
heads will be the talk of the neighborhood and are often grown as an ornamental
in flowerbeds for show-and-tell. When harvested smaller it is an excellent
variety for use fresh and cooked or to make sauerkraut.
Denali Seed Company offers heirloom,
open pollinated,
organic and
hybrid seed for annual,
biennial,
and perennial
flowers, wildflowers,
herbs, oriental
favorites and traditional vegetables
that include varieties offered exclusively by Denali Seed Company. Some Denali
varieties were bred in Alaska for Alaskan growing conditions. All our seed varieties
have been performance tested in Alaska to assure success in Alaskan gardens
and preform well in arctic gardens, sub-arctic gardens, high altitude gardens,
northern gardens and when used for northern greenhouse gardening. We are always
testing new varieties to see if they perform satisfactorily in Alaska. We need
volunteers to help us by growing these varieties
in their garden for evaluation.
Our goal is to help gardeners excel when growing a
garden in cool, short season areas, in cold soils and during long summer days.
For your assistance our veteran Arctic horticulturist, Reg Yaple, wrote the
Alaska growing instructions "growing
tips" for all varieties sold by Denali Seed
Company and are found on our Bestcoolseeds website.
