Hi I must first apologise for not getting back to you . I do end up getting them from several differant companies. This year I got them from Suttons, I had them from Thompson and Morgan 2010 and there was sufficient to last several years. But the amount does vary . Sometimes I save my own seed because I cannot always drop on the purple ones. Next year I will put it in this forum which companies have them to offer.
To Daisy Cottage, I have frozen them too and used them in fruit crumbles . I thaw them out first as they hold a lot of water. I use the remaining fruit after I have strained them .
But I also add a little sugar to them and use as stewed fruit too. This way the juice doesnt get wasted!- they go well with soaked apricots. But its all about experimenting !
