    Hi guys, I'm new in this forum. I'm from Italy and I will be in UK for a while so I would like to take advantage of my trip for buying some seeds and bulbs to bring home.
    I'm now in Birmingham and I will be in the next weeks in London and Manchester could you recomend me any good shop in these areas.
    Thanks a lot
    Massimo Tabai

    I can't think of anywhere ... however ... when I am in a foreign country I order from local companies, by mail order, to my hotel so I can then bring them home. Of course Italy is in the EU so you would be able to buy plants without any problems, but you would save money having the shipped within the UK.

    I can recommend Anglia Bulbs and Avon Bulbs.
