seedsman
Sells planting stock
A seedsman is a person who sells seeds, especially one who operates a business supplying seeds to farmers and gardeners.
The term is somewhat old-fashioned, largely replaced by seed dealer or supplier: The seedsman's catalog arrived in early spring.
Seedsman may also refer to someone who sows seeds.
