After a tip off from a fellow blogger, we went along to the Wyevale Garden Centre today to see if they were also doing their end of season seed sale. They were, all seeds packets for 50p. We bought 40 packets and when we got home we totted up all the packet prices and were amazed to see that if we had paid full price for them it would have cost us £111! Only paid £20. Got a lot of different chillis for Simon and hopefully just about all the seeds we need for next year on Plot 119. Just need a few others which they didnt have available, and hopefully get those via vegetableseeds.net. Really nice to get a bargain! My middle daughter came as well and bought some chilli seeds too.... might have just got the growing bug after spending the summer with us I think!
That's brilliant! I belong to a Horticultural Society and we have a deal with a large seed company whereby we can order seeds at a 50% discount.............the catalogue is slightly different to the one available to the general public though, but bargains all the same.............I just love them, I feel it's not quite so bad if the seeds don't come to fruition (lots and lots this year!). But heigh ho, just keep trying! Good luck with your collection,it looks great.
