What Makes Survival Garden Seeds Different - non-GMO heirloom seeds

Self-Heal (Prunella vulgaris) is an adaptable, low-growing herb with creeping stems and clusters of small, tubular blue-violet flowers that thrives in a variety of soil types. Heal-all naturally grows on the woodland edge and can adapt to varying lighting from full sun to partial shade. It can be found in disturbed areas with poor soil and is sometimes considered a weed because it easily spreads by rhizome and self-seeding. The hardy plants withstand mowing and foot traffic, and is often used as a lawn alternative or intermixed with grass. Self-heal is a valuable medicinal plant rich in nutrients, with anti-inflammatory and astringent properties that make it highly useful for skin and wound care.

  • Superstar Medicinal Herb - Selfheal (Prunella vulgaris) is an easy-to-grow wildflower in the mint family. It's also called Heal-All or All-Heal for its useful medicinal properties. The leaves and flowers can be used dried or fresh in herbal tea, tonic, and topical applications for wound care, aiding digestion, and supporting immune health.
  • Beneficial Wildflower - Self-heal plants are hardy perennial herbs that are drought-tolerant and adaptable, serving as groundcover in shady areas as well as adding beauty to the garden. Their charming purple flowers attract beneficial insects, particularly bumblebees and butterflies that use its nectar as a food source. By supporting a range of pollinators, this beautiful North American native wildflower adds to your garden ecosystem's biodiversity and vitality.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are heirloom seeds?

Heirloom seeds are the types of seeds your grandparents grew. These varieties have been passed down from generation to generation. They’re old reliable open-pollinated varieties that aren’t typically grown commercially. Instead, they have a rich history that predates modern breeding techniques.

You can learn more about open-pollinated, heirloom, and non-GMO seeds in our Survival Garden Training blog.

Where are Survival Garden Seeds sourced?

The majority of our seeds are sourced in the United States, with a few exceptions when the seed is difficult to source domestically. Whenever we do have to source outside of the US, we ensure our seeds are safe to grow, non-GMO varieties that meet our standards for germination and reliability.

Are your seeds treated?

No, we do not pre-treat our farmer seeds. All of our garden seeds for sale are untreated, open-pollinated, non-GMO, and heirloom varieties. They are kept in temperature-controlled cooler storage until they are packed and shipped to keep them pest and disease-free.

In what zones can I grow your seeds?

The seeds in our collections are specifically chosen from varieties that can be successfully grown from Zone 3 to Zone 10 USDA Hardiness Zones. However, individual varieties have specific needs to thrive in different environments. Each seed pack has optimal temperatures for germination and instructions on seed starting. Consult local frost dates to plan your garden and get the most out of your seeds.

What is the shelf life of these gardening seeds?

Our seeds will generally last for 3-10 years if they are appropriately stored in a cool, dry place. However, we encourage you to grow your survival seeds within a year or two of purchase. This yields the best germination rates possible and also gives you more experience growing survival food now. At the end of the growing season, follow the instructions on the back of each packet for saving seeds for future gardens. These new seeds for survival will be more adapted to thrive in the growing conditions where you are.
