    I can`t say I blame you, that is cheaper than growing them yourself.

    Excellent! I'm looking for some Liatris. I think mine died as it hasn't made a reappearance yet.

    Thats is very good value Peter. On a similar note I bought some gourd seeds from Lidl at the weekend for 29p - most of their seeds are that price - very very cheap.
