I don't believe it.
The group is getting better....not one person has stooped low enough to
point out that "Absinthe makes the heart grow fonder".
At last an end to the horrific puns.


I don't know how you have the gall to say that.

After quoting what he hoped wouldn't be mentioned too - even a wormwood turn.

What is to there to discuss? All I want to know is where to obtain
either seeds or plants and to get the info from someone who knows not
someone who makes a quess. (But certainly not from Jack and Jill Moral
and Ethical Philosophers of the Gardenting World.)

Where is the big deal about all of this? Not one of you have given an
accurate answere. Too busy following the Maggufin.


Actually, Nick did give you an accurate answer. Chiltern seeds do offer
Artemisia Absinthium.

I was surprised to see your response, as I have bought seeds for this
plant from them in the past, so I went and checked.

http://www.edirectory.co.uk/chiltern.../moreinfo.asp?
Table=Product&RecordID=BFBDGBI

is the exact location of the individual product record. I suspect you
must have made a typo while searching, or put the genus or species name
in the wrong search box.

I found it by typing 'wormwood' in the 'english name' box.

http://www.greenchronicle.co.uk/acatalog/Wormwood.html also offer it.

(If you ask people not to discuss something, human nature usually
results in them doing exactly that.

It's like if I ask you not to think about rhinoceros. See? Hard not
to.

Better to just not mention whatever aspect it is you are bored with, and
just hope it doesn't come up.)

Anyone know where I can buy Artemisia Absinthium (aka Wormwood) either
seeds or young plants in or around the Glasgow area? I would also be
interested in mail order but would prefer a garden centre/nursery in the
above area.

Jane Lane Nursery sell young wormwood plants for 90p each. Their
address is http://www.janelanenursery.co.uk You should probably check
with them that it's what you want.

I've bought a lot of plants from them in the past and IME they are
very efficient and friendly. (No - they're not paying me.)

Thankyou

Chiltern Seeds, if I recall. I found it easy to grow from seed.

Chiltern Seeds do not appear to hold such stocks.

Thankyou for your interest.

Have a nice day.

I wonder why it has to be local. What''s wrong with mail order? Seeds
don't cost that much to post. I agree with Victoria, why not just ask
for the information and not add a pretentious load of additions to the
question. We would never have known the writer has a priest as a garden
designer.

Do what I did do a
google and check previous posts to this group.



But people might respond, 'Who-Wishes-to-Remain-Annonymous' with why,
having found Google you couldn't find plants of wormwood or even
seeds?
