    Hello Zoomer44

    THANK YOU for the seeds and the card/ note, I got them today they all look great nice colour ranges together - thanks for the extra seed packs that was nice.

    Will have to take photos of all seeds when grown that I have swapped when they are in flower and post them on here. So all can enjoy them as well.

    Hello all

    I have been sorting out my veg seeds and have loads of seeds to swap if anyone wants them some of them dated to 2012 but have been stored in dry conditions indoors in a pot so should be fine to sow. They're full packets of seeds and not opened (still sealed).

    Kings seeds -

    Parsnips - Countess F1, Parsnip - Hollow Crown, Onion - Long Red Florence, Courgette - Zucchini

    Thompson & Morgan- Courgette - Venus F1 Hybrid

    Garden News Mag - Terry Walton's Leek Musselburgh

    Mr Fothergill's-  Rocket 

    2013 End seeds pack - Beetroot - Boltardy

    2014 End seed pack - Lettuce -  All the year round, Cress - American Land

    Still have home collected Honesty seeds - purple flowers and Pony tail grass seeds

    Anybody want to swap?  I am interested in flower seeds

  • Hi Gardengirl, sounds great. I have run out of flower seeds to swap image Till I buy some more at the end of the month image

    Hello Sam did you want any of those seeds I listed I could send them to you, I dont mind not swapping so they can be used by someone. 

    I forgot to list Kings seeds - Leeks- Musselburgh and Kings Leek - Jolant. 

    Swapped these so dont have them now  Garden News Mag - Terry Walton's Leek Musselburgh, Mr Fothergill's  Cress - American Land, - I still have the rest listed if anyone wants them

    Have swapped a lot of seeds and had a long day, after the potato day at Whitchurch Hampshire

    So If anyone wants the seeds on list on my post before but does not have anything to swap that is fine, I will send them out to you if you say what you want.

    Can't think at moment Dave but if you know of anyone with a fig tree I would love a cutting.
    I am happy to just send you the seeds though.

    Gardengirl. I've already bought my veg seeds for this year but beetroot -boltardy is a reliable cropper, was trying different varities this time, but if free in a swap,..image I'd like those and would like to try growing leeks from seed...usually get those as plugs.

    I've some biennial and perennial flower seeds to swap if you are interested.

    Hello Zoomer44

    I would like to swap for the perennial flower seeds please.   With the leek seeds -would you like Musselburgh Winter crop - harvest Nov-Jan-Feb, or Jolant Autumn crop -harvest August onward. 

    I can send you both, if you want them both that's fine just say, I will send the beetroot to you as well - good if someone can use the seeds -  nice to seed swap

    The autumn leek seeds would be fine. 

    Periennial seeds are - Viola, Veronica, Shasta Daisy, Verbena and  Echinacea.

    Also Christmas tree seeds - Norway spruce, happy to give those away, can't imagine I'd grow a tree in my life time image.

    Hello Zoomer44

    I will sort out your seeds for you the perennial seeds I like are the Shasta daisy after watching on A to Z of gardening show bit about daisies look good, I don't think I want to grow a tree either - so maybe see if anyone else wants those seeds but thanks for the offer of them. I will let you know when posted your seeds.
