    Zoomer44, I know the feeling; I would love rolling acres, or at least half an acre.image

    Last year a friend bought a little lemon tree at Aldi or Lidl, dead cheap, so was hoping to get one.

  • I brought some cheap seeds today from in-excess 25p per pack, I know they sell them off cheaply because date has past but sure if they kept them stored well they will grow fine. lots of flower seeds I brought - but there was veg as well

  • I've used seeds from Lidl for the last few years and I have had great success with them. My cucmbers were lovely. I can not see the point paying so much for seeds from the well known brands when the Lidl seeds do just as well and produce such lovely plants.image

    We get our seeds from Premier Seeds online we have bought seeds from lidl in the past some success some not,but i guess theres no guarantee on any seeds just trial and error.

    I think in this time of cut backs osteritys etc weather you buy cheap seeds whatever the need to sow and grow will always remain.

  • thank you Garden girl for sending me some seeds...  looking forward to using them... sorry my reply is late, they arrived last week.

  • I have used Aldi and Lidl seeds for the past number of years with very good results in comparison to other people on my allotment site who have used Sutton's seeds and other brands , why are the big brand named seeds so expensive ,for example Sweetcorn F1 Swift  and Sweet pepper California ,0.79 each ,form Aldi and in my local big walk around hard- wear Store they are €3.99 ,  ripoff the armature gardener

  • That's good summerpots that you got your seeds

    I have brought seeds from Lidl before work fine for me too - only thing is if there is seeds they don't have but I want sometimes easier to look though catalogues at home and order them off bigger companies.

    But do like cheap seeds of flowers or veg
