Friends of Fire:

I would recommend nearly any seed company that sells seed.  National seed
laws require that they test germination and purity on all seed sold.

I have ordered jalapenos, greens, serannos, and habaneros from Johnnys,
Seedway, Northrup King, etc. as well as buying some packets of seed from our
favorite "Mart"  (Wal or K).  Have had good success with all these seeds.
Remember that peppers like warm soil when they germinate.  Use commercial
seed tray warming mats, or keep them in a warm place, where they won't cool
dowm too much at night.  We keep the greenhouse at 75 degrees F at night and
it gets up to 85 degrees plus during the day even in March when we are
starting our peppers.
