  • Hello,  I found this site earlier and was so excited that I have signed up and have been out collecting from my garden! 

    I have some spare seeds from:

    Nasturtium

    Sweet pea

    Cosmos

    Globe thistle

    and

    something which may be feverfew ...

    Hope someone would like some image

  • Welcome lizzy b great collection..... I would love some cosmos whatever colour as my daughter loves it.... I have a huge list including chillies, flowers and vegetables listed on the 1st or seconds page... However my poppy seeds are almost gobe now I could spare a pinch..... I also have buckland astrantia now.....

  • Stacey, the cosmos is mostly a fantastic vibrant pink though there may be some pale pink too.  I think I collected seeds from both but they have been drying for a while and I can't remember.  It all either grew from seeds I collected last year or from self sets in the drive!

    I would love to swap for some of the buckland astrantia.

    How does this work? How many seeds do we send?image L plates on!

  • Welcome Lizzy.

    I would love some of your globe thistle, sweetpea,and nasturtium,s if possible Lizzy.

    I will pm you with my address.

    I also have cosmos stacey,did you not check my new list that i put up?

     

  • Hi Diddy,

    Can I swap you for some Echinacea and some Sea Holly?  I had Sea Holly in my wedding bouquet at Easter and my husband had it in his buttonhole - it would be amazing to have some in our garden!

    Is there a'normal' amount of seeds to send?  I would hate to be rude by mistake!

    I'll try and pm you too.

    thanks
