Looking for tomato seed Mirabell. Not looking for a swop but wondering can anyone tell me which seed merchant packages them as I can't find them. Thanks

Can you order from here OK Bramble? If not I can nip into Ryton & pick a pack up for you & post it to you.

PM me your address if needed.

I get most of my seeds from organic catalogue, no problems and good amount of seeds in some of the pack. Ordered Phacelia one year as a green manure and it came in a 1/2 pound bag.

I wasn't sure if they delivered to Eire Andrew thats why I asked Bramble.

I get loads of stuff from them as well, I usually go round to Ryton as it's on my doorstep the only trouble with this is you end up buy loads more than you inteded to

Only orders over £25 are p&p free in the UK. I ordered an extra pack of seed the last time I ordered to take my order over the £25 mark. If I remember they call it an admin charge?

Hi Camping Gaz,

Welcoem to the vine. My Gt neice (she's 6) does things like that. She'll rummage thru the bid & sow pepper seed & my Sister has peppers growing everywhere

I wish she'd take my cuttings come january, I'd have no failures then
