Hubby knows better than to try and ban me......... boy would he get it if he did!!! Our money is separate so he really has no clue how much I actually spend.
That was me last season Res, I found myself out of control last year, I could'nt seem to stop buying plants, any plants, three new Acers...even a Fir tree, a palm. This year its only going to be Dianthus which are brilliant little flowers. I started the big clearout today...it was quite warm and... I remember my son who does'nt live with me getting quite worried, said it looked more like Kew........... As summer went on I found myself 'hiding new flowers' from him...
I've never had a problem with it, needs a bit of warmth to germinate. But then so do a lot of things. When I had the veg round, a local grocer asked if I could supply him with a pound a week, so I brought loads of it on undercover. When I took it in to him, he wouldn't buy it for the (fair) price I wanted, saying he only gave it away as a freebie when customers placed a big order Send me a Stamped addressed envelope if you want some, see this thread to see what else is going free http://gardenerscorner.co.uk/forum/edible-gardening/40978-free-seeds.html
