Buying seeds for next year.

[Sim]

I'm thinking of buying and storing courgette seeds for next year. I'm doing this because the seeds I wanted this year were all sold out which I'm hoping to avoid next time. So my question is how long will courgette seeds last and what is the best way to store them?

I don't grow these as we get too many, but this has prompted me to buy seeds for next year, often I either forget, or they sell out quickly.

£10 for four packets of seed, blimey, I hope I like 'em lol

What varieties did you buy Burnie?

[burnie]

Giant red carrot, gardeners ecstasy tommie, Ruby tommie and Mantovano Florence (Bulbing) Fennel

I keep trying to grow fennel and it always bolts, this one is allegedly resistant to that,,,,,,,,,,,one hopes as I do like bulb fennel.

Patience my @ss, sowed some of the Fennel to see how they go lol.
