This year I sent for an allocation of seeds from the RHS seed
distribution very early in the season of seed exchanges - November I
think. I still haven't had the seed. They say it's on a 'first come,
first served basis, but I don't think I've ever applied so early before
and I've certainly never had the seed so late.

Does anyone else use the RHS seed distribution and, if so, any comments
on timing this year? (They quite effectively make themselves unavailable
for queries)

Hi Janet,

I received my list with "The Garden" (as I am overseas). I sent my
order off in early/mid December (can find the exact date if you want
to have it) and received the seeds about three weeks ago. Also got
everything in my main selection bar about two. The AGS and HPS seeds
came well before this.

Hope all is well and you receive the seeds soon.

Regards
Iris (McCanna)

A friend of mine says that when they start sending out seeds they
start at a different letter of the alphabet each year.
Don't take this as "gospel" but it may have some bearing.
I didn't send for any this year, not did my friend.
Cheers
