    Melon pear is growing happily in our polytunnel - one of 3 to survive some neglect last winter and now happily sprawling and producing purple potato like flowers.  No idea if we'll get any fruit.

    I echo concerns about seeds from China - no idea what you'll get nor what microscopic nasties may be lurking in the packaging.  The last thing you want is to import a killer virus or bug.  Best destroyed, with their packaging.

    Plant World seeds are excellent in my experience and Suttons have a good reputation.

  • Thanks you for the advice and info on the legitimate seeds!  I'm going to put the mystery pack on the fire later today!
  • Having recently watched "Gremlins" with my grandchildren, I think you're probably wise to destroy them. It just seems too much like the opening scene from a new Xmas thriller: "The Secret Santa Seeds".
