simple SQL question I think

Here's an easy one I hope:

I'm trying to insert a string of text into a character field . The string includes an & symbol... eg: "Seeds & Oil Producing Seeds"

I keep getting:

   old: "Seeds & Oil Producing Seeds"
   new: "Seeds Producting Seeds"

Can someone help me out here? How do I force Oracle to take the & symbol? I've tried double single quotes around it, double quotes, but to no avail...

Thanx in advance.
