I used these people last year and was very pleased.


Thanks for that, I have ordered the seed , it came very quickly, so am
happy with the company. Now it is just a case of waiting until it is
fir to sow them then see how well they germinate!


I'm a gardening failure, this was my final attempt before the ultimate
disgrace.
The seeds I put down by the sunny front garden wall grew very well. I got
loads of compliments! I was not sure what to do when the summer was over.
Cut them down or leave alone? I asked the seller and they advised me.
Nothing has ever grown in the flower bed in front of the house, the seeds I
put down did not grow there very well. This area gets very little sunshine
and is always wet.
But hey! I'm the guy that put grass seed down, covered it with 4 inches of
soil and gave it a good stamping down :-)
