    Seeds arrived this morning Gran,  thank you image

  • If you could message me with your name and address Justin, I'll post some verbena to you tomorrow.

    Am I correct in thinking you want seeds for wildlife attracting flowers for a school ?

    Is there anything else you would like ?

  • I'll message you now image

     

    Yes, it's for our school wildlife garden so any bee/butterfly attractors would be great please!

    My calicarpa  has  some broken twigs due to the winds,the birds won't eat the seeds which have fell on the ground. Don't know if they germinate , does anyone want to try them.they might have to be put in the freezer for a while  .Not sureimage

  • Never thought of cutting it poppy, good tip! image



    Yes i am that dippyimage
  • Lol bekkie image.

    A few stems were broken so I snipped them off. Then I decided to cut a few more and put them in a vase instead of throwing the broken stems in the compost bin image.

    Justin, I'll go through all of my seeds tonight and see what I can put together for you. I've got quite a lot of seeds for attracting wildlife.

    I'll post them tomorrow, probably in a jiffy envelope since there will be several types of seed. image

  • Thanks for the dahlia seeds, Lyn - received them yesterdayimage

    Cangran, I've posted the balance of the scabious seeds- sorry for the delay- they've been sat in a cup on my worktop for some weeks nowimage

    If anyone is still after seeds for next year, PM me as I've still got a stack of seeds free from various mags...
