      Loli, I don't think there are many near you but it's worth checking Wyevale GCs (now called thegardencentregroup) they usually put all their seeds on sale for 50p sometime in the Autumn, that's where I got mine last time.

      This is closest I think, at York - don't go there specially until we know for sure the sale is on, might cost you more in petrol though :)

          :yikes: Could this be it?

          The final end of the War of the Roses?

          The House of York finally making a peace offering to the House of Lancaster?

          Will the gesture be accepted?

          Will the Fathers of Lancaster finally be allowed to name their Sons Richard?

          Will the Fathers of York be able to name their Son's Edward?

          Or is it just Loli offering Harry some Chillies?

              Good idea, there are two near my office so when the seed sale starts I'll get in there, if I'm lucky enough I'll grab you some more Carmen if you like.

                      Hi @Gdnam, is that the 50p seed sale or the 1/2 price sale? I went into my local one last week and it was the 1/2 price sale :blue thumb:

                        50% off here too when I went in a couple of days ago ...

                        Can you check if all my preferred seeds are still behind the long row of unsold Parsley seed please? :heehee:

                            Twas both my friend. Not much in the way of plants tho', mostly left over summer bedding and half dead pansies. Apart from a few marked down (sickly looking) perennials.
