      Bought my seeds this year from Seed Parade (choc habs 1 out of 15 germinated - eventually but perished soon after ..) probably my fault, though - don't think I gave them enough constant warmth.
      And South Devon Chilli Farm - all doing well to date

      Haven't got any 'unusual' varieties - yet!

        I got mine from SeaSpring, Victoriana Nursery and Thomas Etty this year all have done well. I have to confess I prefer getting self-saved seeds from circles though, just for the sheer freshness. They jump out of the propagator. That I thereafter fail to care for them is their bad luck!

          I think that was because you're in France. I don't think SDCF have a minimum order for UK customers. And they're unusual in not charging p&p for seed-only orders.

          Agree with some of the other comments. Nicky's are cheap and cheerful and have a very wide range, but the website looks dated. And don't expect all their descriptions to be informative or correct, although other websites are also guilty of that. Many of them are basically just retailers, buying in bulk, packaging and selling on. Hence the basic cut and paste descriptions and photos.

          SDCF, Seaspring and others are a lot better with the information they provide and the feeling that they're growers too, not just retailers.

          I also like the look of Simpsons and they have a great range of chillies and tomatoes:

            I got mine from Seaspring last year and they all fruited weird ..but to be fair it was a rubbish summer and most were superhots.
            tried Fatalii this year and already my Tinkerbell sweet peppers don't look like sweet peppers.
