  • Hello all. I would like to be involved in your seed swop program. Anyone able to tell me who covers postage. Are the seeds always from opened packets or any from garden collected that may not be true to type. The concept of shrub cuttings interest me greatly Lurnincurve. Are you thinking of unrooted cuttings?

  • Has anyone sent me an SAE? I have received a Royal Mail grey card asking me for another £1.50 standard penalty fee because the sender didn't pay enough postage, and the package won't be delivered unless I pay it.

    Royal Mail Prices went up on the 26th March, so somebody might have been caught out by the new rates.

    I've got some baby Cyclamen hederifolium 'alba' springing up in the garden  ... anyone want a few?

    No postage needed in the UK but a donation to Mencap,  Whizz-Kidz or the Sickle Cell Society  next time you see a collecting tin would be good.

    This thread is unusually quiet for this time of year.

    Just before I list my seeds i want to point out that I don't mind any of my friends speaking on my behalf on this forum. Lyn like many other members too are friends of mine since joining many moons ago . So why be picky about words ?? . 

    On this is forum I've been happy to send seed out to many ,  AND paying the postage myself.the pleasure comes when as a true gardener i know my little seeds have made plants for another. There is also the exchange factor that some seeds arrive through your letterbox allowing the practise to continue. It's lovely
    to have the feedback . If my sent seeds  don't germinate i send more  the following year.
    Rant over i will sort me seed out now. B)
