Now the blasted things seem to come with almost every post, and if the
postman doesn't bring any there are more arriving on line every week.
Do you resist the urge to buy, or do you end up with more seeds than you
can ever get round to sowing?

I just save the one catalogue I use and bin the rest.

I don't remember ever buying from a catalogue. The only time I could
have done with a catalogue was this year when I wanted a mix of chilli
seeds. No such specialist dealer seems to do a catalogue so I ordered
on-line from South Devon Chilli Farm.

We stopped buying by mail order from any of these cowboys years ago.

Mail order encourages the marketeer to get rid of any old stock.

Go to your own local nursery and see what you are buying, strike up a rapport with them and they will look after you.
