    There are some eBay Defra registered seed sellers who I have used for the unusual and they were good.

      I have bought my seed from Marshalls & Suttons for many years and have had good service from both companies, their germination rates are good two.

      We all have failures but I find if I look back it is usually my fault. As a for instance last year I had heck on with spring onion White Lisbon I didn't get any to germinate until about Aug. Couldn't blame the seed though as my mate had no problems with seed from the same packet.

      Oh and I never did find out what he was doing that I wasn't.

        What do you mean - what was produced? Did they germinate, and what varieties were they? What, where, when, how - all of these are more likely to make more of a difference than bad seed.

          Had an email from them recommending Leaf beet fantasy & when I went on site found tomato sungold for 20p, salad leaves for 49p radish for 49p carrot flyaway for 99p so my new year resolution to resist buying seeds didn t last the day.I ordered a packet of cucumber (picolino) & they were 0p but I don`t know why.
          Postage is £1.99 but I should get some money back from topcashback as well.
