You buy seeds to enjoy this summer, but apparently you need to wait until next year ,
Bit disappointed to be hy
Excellent service
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.
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
I would maybe have given 5 star but haven't had a chance to sow them yet to see if they are viable.
