Looking for....

...In my case it's 'Job's Tears' seeds. I found one supplier but he wants paying in gold! Any reasonable merchants out there?

As always, my 'go to' seed supplier, hopefully not the one you tried!
http://www.b-and-t-world-seeds.com/ and search 'Coix' in botanical name search.

Still on the look-out for a UK supplier of Coix lacryma-jobi; Job's Tears. Anyone know of a site? I seem to have tried them all without much luck.

HI Kenkew

i had a real good search but also came up no UK suppliers. i did notice that on US ebay there is one seller but they only post stateside, do you know anyone over there that could purchase it for you?

i noticed alot of herbal references, have you approached a herbilst wholesaler?
i shall continue to look, i dont like to be beaten!!

Cheers, Oubykh (what's in a name??) What's niggling me is that I did find a UK supplier but since I got my new 'puter I've lost it!!..Grrr.

I think I've found a local supplier!
Meeting up with him next week. He says the seeds are from certified stock so all should be OK. This time next year I might be selling worry beads on the market!!
