    We have a shop on our allotments which bulk buys Kings seeds, so they can sell them for half the retail price. Otherwise I get seeds that come with magazines or I buy from gardening shows.

    Maybe your ground needs fertalizing. Do you feed regularly and add compost to ground?

    Gardening on the wild, windy west side of Dartmoor. 

  • Can recommend Kings Seeds - especially if you are in a club/allotment seed scheme when the price is discounted

  • I get most of mine when Wyevale reduces them at the end of the season i think they eventually went right down to 50p a packet. And on magazines of course.

  • The real seed catalogue, magazines, organic gardening catalogue, allotment shop.  

    My OH loves the brown envelopes that the real seed catalogue send their heritage seeds out in.  And I would admit that the produce had a better flavour.  I was impressed with the crop we got from the telephone pea.

  • I like Sarah Raven for bulbs and I like Fothergills for seeds. image

  • most of mine where sved from last years crops.. only bought in celery this year to try it... and purple radish ones.

  • Local gdn ctr sells this yrs seeds 1/2 price so always buy them for next yrs sowings.
