Nickys Nursery (Seeds)

Late Thursday (11pm 'ish) I placed an order with Nickys nursery and they arrived this morning - SUPERB service!

Opened the envelope to find packets of seeds that are packaged like this (which is nice!)................

 

A veritable mine of information too. Nice one Keith,

 

I was more than pleased, not to say surprised by their speed!

 

Was sent some Horseshoe Vetch seed which is the foodplant of two of Britain s Blue Butterflies. checked the seed under a microscope and rejected 60% as being unlikely to grow as shrivelled , badly discoloured, dead Weevils in some seed pods. etc.,Was told to sow in spring and chip them. almost zero germination when I did.
Collected my own wild seed in August sowed straight away without chipping and 85% germination. I have vast experience of sowing seeds. Sowed my own saved selected seed and got nearly 100% germination.

 

Good morning Graham and to Gardeners Corner.
I do hope to see you around the site but would appreciate a bit more of a formal introduction . Can you post one on here please?

What did the supplier say when you told them?

 

If you haven't already done so, it's always best to get straight back to the supplier to try and resolve the issue before taking it elsewhere. If you have done that, try pursuing it further here https://www.trustpilot.com/review/www.nickys-nursery.co.uk

All companies make mistakes, it's how many they make and how they sort them out that matters.

There's some people who've just joined a gardening forum to post about of a bad experience with a supplier who might feel slightly intimidated by an existing member immediately requesting that they provide a 'formal introduction' - because that's how I would feel about such a request.

Jenny gave a polite welcome and was just being friendly.

It was only a request, not a demand

 

@Scrungee you have to be nicer with Jenny , we have a thread about "bullying" and every so often you have to have a dig and not the gardening kind we like on here , take a chill pill.
Like Zig already quoted, Jenny was only being friendly.

I said that's how I would feel, so feel better qualified to know my own feelings better than others.

And there was me thinking there was possibly a more friendly (rather than 'formal' way to present that request, but it's all turning into some big disagreement!
