Want a laugh..

I went into my local garden centre yesterday to pivk up seeds and they didn`t have any..I think they shipped em all to the UK LOL

No probs I found them online here.

The garden centre was full of fake Christnmas trees and things with snow on but no seeds of any type.

Oh dear! I forgot to sow my Walla Walla! Probably too late now, but I think I'll experiment with a short row under fleece anyway. What do you think?

Does Walla Walla go by another name? or is it just any sweet onion seeds you can buy? I looked on the link site but none were called Walla Walla. Taa Ann

http://www.wallawalla.org/onions.cfm

you can get them on e-bay from premier seeds, I have sown mine and they need pricking out, I would think may be a bit late to start now, but they were cheap enough to try.
