Still pouring over catalogues here too! However I did order 16 salvia plug plants from Suttons last week as well as some more medicinal herb seeds. I've got my trusty note book out and am busy rejigging a couple of flower beds as we speak!
I ordered most of mine last year from fothergills in the seed sale. It was me who posted it on here.Just got to get my cucumber seeds from DT. Brown. Waiting for one of their offers.
If you sign up for email they will let you know what offers there are.
So am I, Dove! I won't be buying any plants from her, as the tomato plugs I got last year were merely OK-ish, but I'm tempted by many of the seeds. (The dahlia bulb I got from SR last year produced a wonderful plant, OTOH.) I just don't get why most of the packs have 500 or even 1000 seeds - I really don't need that many. Do you know if the seeds are good quality?
Today received two agapanthus Twister plants . They are both healthy with lush green leaves and good roots ready to pot on.
Bought some sweet pea seeds, a striped variety just for something different and Cuprani l saw recommended by someone on the forum. Have been gifted a DA Olivia Rose Austin rose and a hellebore Double Ellen Purple for Christmas. I'm not going to buy anything else all year, I'm really not.. I'm going to use up my old seed and make do.?

AuntyRach, I recommend sweet pea Beaujolais, a wonderful deep burgundy colour and the best scent from all those I grew last year.
