      Anyone heard if they have been lucky enought to "win"?

      Originally (as quoted above) notifications should have been the week after. I've checked today and the latest is:
      Interestingly, I received my copy of Gardener's World and they are promoting these free seeds ... :oopss: ... think they were all gone before the April issue of GW was released!

            Mine have arrived :yahoo:

            No prior notification though (not that I'm complaining!); only got them today because we have an outside mail box and it wasn't checked yesterday :redface:

            Jungle Jane - have you received any yet?

            Does anyone know the types of seeds that are in the packet. All I know is that they're a mix of annuals, biennials and perennials. :dunno:

            I was wondering the same thing Fern4 :scratch:

            I can see a type of daisy flower, poppy and a blurred blue thingy on the packet; I've yet to find the source to say what the mix is.

            Mind you, it really doesn't matter that much to me; I'll just be delighted if I can get them to grow :redface:

            Hi Mum..There was a list of the seeds in the packet on the website nationalgardeningweek.org.uk but it seems to have been removed from there unless I can't see for looking!

            Hopefully they'll grow for us and even better they're a freebie! :snork:
