    I would be up for some sweet rocket seed too. I thought they were biannual.

    Mine lasted six years here and spread itself about a bit, but I think the Beast from the East saw it off  :/

    Dove, I saw your white hesperis pics and bought some seed on the back of them. I would like a bank of them like you had. I lost most of my seedlings to slugs, but want to try again.

    I really miss them this year 

    And the perfume in the evening was sheer bliss  B)

    Yes, usually ... we had several clumps around the place ... but this year they've just not appeared.   :'(

    I think they'd all just started into growth and then we had all that snow for so long they just gave up.

    I've got these seeds if anyone wants them... the milkmaid is to use by end of 2019. All the rest have really long dates, Rhubarb there's about 10 seeds in the pack. Others are unopened packs

    My sweet rocket this year were the best I've had, big strong plants.
