      Always loved Korean food. The diversity of flavors is simply amazing.

      I also grow Korean vegetables myself and would love it if anybody shared some Korean vegetable/herb/grain seeds that they brought from Korea.

      Especially seeds grown by families (family heirloom seeds) and open-pollinated seeds.

      Only seeds from United States.

      Looking for seeds of:

      ssuk (mugwort; Artemesia princeps), water dropwort (Minari [미나리]; scientific name Oenanthe javanica) varieties, Korean squash (both summer and winter types), Open-pollinated ponytail radish, buckwheat, tartary buckwheat (타타르 메밀), Job’s tears aka adlay and in Korean yulmu (율무), Korean black sweet rice (Heukmi chapssal; 흑미 찹쌀), peas, other Korean legumes, Korean onions (Allium cepa), red or yellow-colored bunching onions (대파; scientific name Allium fistulosum), Korean garlic (Allium sativum), Korean shallot (A. cepa var. aggregatum), different other Korean alliums like Korean chive (including Allium monanthum, A. tuberosum, A. victorialis, A. ursinum?, A. chinense?, etc.), Korean leek (Allium ampeloprasum), different wild plants that are used for namul 나물 and sanchae (including, but not limited to, Chwinamul [취나물; scientific name Aster scaber], Angelica species like A. sinsensis [danggui] and A. gigas, naengi [냉이; “shepherd’s-purse” in English; scientific name Capsella bursa-pastoris], gomchwi 곰취 [Ligularia fischeri], Ligularia fischeri, dolnamul [돌나물; Sedum sp.], meowee [머위; Petasites sp. or Tussilago farfara??], Chamnamul [참나물; scientific name Pimpinella brachycarpa??], Sseumbagwi [씀바귀; scientific name Ixeridium dentatum, synonym Ixeris dentata], Dureup [두릅; wild Aralia species], Bomdong [봄동; simply a wild cabbage], Dallae [달래; Allium monanthum], deodok??, saengchonamul?? [Lychnis cognate], Clematis mandshurica??, Adenophora triphylla, Valeriana fauriei [though related to poisonous plants], gobi namul, gondre, oipul [called burnet or cucumber plant in English; scientific name Sanguisorba], Cirsium setidens, Patrinia scabiosifolia [and possibly Patrina rupestris], etc.)

      Let me know if any of you have any other Korean vegetable seeds not on this list too (even Korean oak species that make good noodle/dotorimuk).

      Also, perhaps more realistically, I would like if anyone pointed me to a seed company that sells mostly Korean seeds in the US, or a Korean store that sells any of those seeds mentioned, or a Korean cultural place where they plant Korean vegetables, including some that immigrants brought over themselves.
