Wilco. cheap seeds, any good?

Just popped into my local Wilkinson store and saw that their seeds seem to be a very good price. Plus they have them at either 3 for £1.50 or 3 for £2.50.

Some are only 52p per pack, but some are £1.23 in the 3 for £1.50 offer.

This is my first year of growing veg so I'll not be wasting too much money when my crops fail.

This is what I picked up.

Broad bean - bunyards exhibition 97p
Leek - musselburge 52p
Swede - best of all 52p
Parsnip - white gem 97p
Carrot - autumn king 2 52p
Broccoli - autumn green calabrese 97p

Total was £3.00. Which I thought was pretty good.

I also have all my Van Meuwen seeds from the Mails 2008 give away.

 

thanks for the info

loopy

 

I wonder if you can grow Jelly Beans.

 

I also get a fair ammount of seeds from Wilcos and labels, canes, tom feed, twine, Vermiculite and g/house shading whitewash. All very good value and much cheaper than a garden center. Go at the end of the season they sell off their seeds at ridiculous prices. Last autumn I got £50 worth of seed for around £12 I think it was (75% off!).

And just to add morrisons are also good for seeds good selection of flower seeds and vegetable seeds i think the offer i got was 4 for £2 not bad
