Default Useful website - seed packets

eSeeds.com - International Source of Garden, Flower, Vegetable, Tree and Shrub Seeds

Found this by accident and thought it quite handy. They sell stuff, or course, but more importantly, they have images of all the seed packets. Handy for the ones you lose - or is that just me?

Excellent find!

Some bargains (but also some massive prices) and I love the photographed packets. Nice one

Ok I've had a really good look at this site and LOVE it! Before I get stiched up unwisely shopping at an untested store, has anyone used this and got positive feedback about them?

The web site says they've been online since 1997. This website contains user comments. They are included in BBC Gardeners World Supplier Directory

Never used them, I was hooked by the pictures of the seed packets. Let us know how you get on if you try them

Elijay - nice one! I'd forgotten about Dave's Garden (and that after I got stitched up by the darned Rogueland's rotters). I've now saved it in my favourites.

Once bitten, twice shy - I'm afraid that given this level of feedback I'm steering clear of eseeds. I'll just use the site as a price comparison / ideas for suppliers.

I juts had a look at the feedback on Dave's garden. Doesn't sound good does it? Perhaps they spend all their time scanning in seeds packets rather than filling orders. I think you're right about just use for comparison T-lady
