Wilkinson's yesterday had 'Little Gem' lettuce for 32p, and Calendula 'Art Shades' (which I purchased from Chiltern's late last year for around £2) for 79p!

  We buy herbs, melons, pepper seeds fron lidles and have a good germination rate and think its very good value and you get plenty of seeds for your money.
   Bought a horseradish root from Wilkinsons about a month ago, planted it in a big pot but so far not a sign of life, what have i done wrong? :'(.

Horseradish
We used to have a horseradih patch at the back of the garden, I am not sure if it is a bit early for it to grow, as I remember it all coming up in early summer, well I associate it with leaves on trees and warm days, but I guess it islike that now!!
Maybe just wait a little longer
