I am new - a beginner - and currently have only planted three rhubarb plants..... and yesterday looked at my first ever catalogue for seeds.
Now, given that I've got about 12 catalogues to go through, and I could spend several hundred pounds in the first one (seeds of distinction) how do you choose? There are about 13 pages of tomatoes!
Now I'd like to grow tomatoes, but given there are about 25 seeds in each packet by the time I have a cherry, a 'regular round', a bumpy big one, a plum one...... I quite liked the stripy ones........ well, there is no space left in the garden and if we ever see another tomatoe we'll be ill! So I can't BUY all those - or I could, but I only need about 2 or 3 plants of each. If that.
And that's without the rest of the list of things I want to grow......
So, how do I choose please? How do I decide what company? And which seed? And what on earth do I do with everything left over?
