Default Pretty Flower Seeds for giving away...
Afternoon, peeps!

I have a very generous brother-in-law who saves flower seeds from his gorgeous garden for me. Unfortunately he does not know the meaning of the word 'moderation', and so I have a serious glut of:

Dephinium, Evening & Morning primrose, Love-in-the-mist, Honesty, Foxgloves (enough for each and every grape on here, I think!), Hollyhocks and something called 'Big Daisies'

So if you would like some lovely colour for your gardens/plots, I'm sending bundles of seeds out, so pm me your address if you want them and I'll get them out at the weekend.

Don't worry about swapsies or postage.

We'll have to ask Wellie and Auntie Flum as they know about flowers and I don't much!

Hiya Hazel,

I've just pm'd you. If you have any seeds left, my tiny garden is in desperate need of a make-over, so any pretty flowers would make a nice addition! Thanks!

Hazel - are there any daisies left? I'm a sucker for daisies, they seem to grow well here too. Sure you don't want a swop of some sort?
