    So if you have a big enough shipment and a distributor in NI then a relatively small increase per packet covers it. To an individual gardener the cost is prohibitive.
    I would check individual seed companies before even looking at the seeds.
    As said earlier in this thread there are plenty of EU suppliers that can legally ship to NI.

    I only use these guys and am about to put an order. Yes, they are NI but I think they post from Europe I will look when I receive order.

    Their site says they have a store in londonderry and another in letterkenny

    never had to pay for a sanitary certificate but maybe theyre dodging rules or something.

    If you send seed in a plain envelope with just the buyers address on there is a fairly low chance of it being inspected; if it is it would be confiscated.

    Thankfully Mr. Fothergills , Chiltrens, and Moles are sending seed to Northern Ireland . legally ? I dont know, didn`t ask, just ordered and and received . Thompson and Morgans and Suttons their sister company are not neither are many other companies like dobbies. I did get get seed from the EU , Budget seeds, Bargain seeds and Happy green seeds , all cheap but not great gemination.
