Not been delivered yet

Can’t not review seed as not received product yet! When can expect my deliver ?

Hi Lyn - I'm sorry about your order's non-appearance. As our private email correspondence, it was sent on the 5th and Royal Mail seem to have lost it, judging by the tracking details. We'll send a replacement ASAP.

Yellow rattle and Somerset north mix

These arrived rapidly and will be planted in the next few weeks, looking forward to seeing how they do as Dad converts his front lawn to a meadow

Seems fine

I would maybe have given 5 star but haven't had a chance to sow them yet to see if they are viable.
