    Thought I'd bump this up as people seem to be in a buying mood, or is that just me? image

    On Thursday evening I ordered 8 packets if seeds from Premier Seeds Direct (via EBay), 99p each and free P&P, they have arrived today and I am really impressed with the service.  The only point to note for newbies like me is that there were no sowing/growing instructions as the packets are plain, but that's not too much of a problem as I have learned lots from on here and have googled the rest! So I will definitely be using Premier Seeds again and would recommend them.

    Also on Thursday night, I ordered  a Geum (Totally Tangerine) and a climbing rose (Iceberg) from Crocus, they too have arrived today, really well packaged and excellent quality.  Again, I am really impressed and would definitely use them again and recommend them image
