  • Seed buying record 2026

    A new year, a new thread. Here is a link to last year for reference Seed buying thread 2025 - The Grapevine

    A place to record all your seed purchases throughout the year.

    I ordered the rest of the seed we want for this year yesterday from MoreVeg:

    New to us:
    Pepper ‘Cubanelle’ (10, £1.25)
    Tomato ‘Rubinka’ (12, £1.75)
    Nasturtium Tall Climbing Mix (20, £1)
    Radish ‘Crimson Giant’ (100, 75p)
    Cottagers Kale (12, 75p)
    Lettuce ‘Analena’ (75, £1.10),

    Tried & tested:
    Winter Cabbage ‘Tundra’ (20, £1.20)
    Parsnip ‘White Gem’ (60, 75p)

    P&P was £1.90 but would have been free if the order was over £15.

    Everything else was ordered before Xmas or we already have in the stash.

      Bought some flower seeds from premier;

      agastache foeniculum
      salvia nemorosa
      cornflower

      Ridiculous - I have a tin full of seeds already and limited space to plant them but it seems at this time of year I simply can't resist.

      Endless wonder.

        I got a supermarket Savoy cabbage the other day and it reminded me of what a tasty veg it is. So of course I ordered some clubroot resistant savoy cabbage seeds.

          As none of my Parsnip White Gem seed have chitted yet (started 03 March), I bit the bullet & ordered some more seed today.

            I've stocked up on some "essentials". Tomatoes, sungold and akoya. White Lisbon spring onions, April spring cabbage, beetroot chioggia, broccoli tenderette, speedy leaves salad mix and sunflowers, astra rose and soluna bronze.

            They were on offer plus free delivery so I had to buy them.

              Picked up some Sungold and a climbing French bean I haven't tried before. Managed to hold off buying more than I can actually grow this year, which is a first.
