ou get what you pay for, if you want field grown seed of varieties
that went out of use commercially over 60 years ago then go to
Poundstretcher, if you want F1 hybrid all female varieties then you
have to pay for them, it is comm0n for F1 varieties to cost from 35p
to 50p a seed bought in bulk by growers.
T&M do advertise Cucino cucumber as 4 seeds to a packet

Yes, like i said David it came as a surprise as i bought them because my
others got lost and i just want to try the smaller ones. i take you
point entirely that special seeds are expensive but it doesn't give you
much chance to get it right does it?
