Hello Geri, 
A quick glance at this list shows me several varieties that are listed as Seminis only they've been produced for decades not necessarily by Seminis. Golden Acre Cabbage, Habanero Pepper are two quick mentions. We moved away from Seminis varieties a couple of years ago and it's quite a task to avoid confusion. It took three years of careful vegetable trials to find comparable non-Seminis replacements. Fortunately for all of us, other seed companies and breeders have stepped up to the plate. Of course we all treasure our heirlooms.
