I have Beetroot Burpees Golden (orange-yellow colour roots), French purple podded climbing bean (Cosse Violette), Nasturtium (tom thumb mixed), Marigold (Targetes Starfire), loads of various other flower seeds for your dwarf French beans Minidor, dwarf bean purple teepee and flat leaf parsley if you're interested. Also have outdoor Cucumber (Marketmore) but there are probably better out there.

Ooh, could I have some of the beetroot please? I have purple teepee dwarf beans (have I read this correctly - is this what you're looking for or are you getting rid of it?????). I have all sorts of things too - are you looking for something in particular that I can send you in exchange? I've PM'ed you.
