Title: Free seeds!
Post by: mrsnesbitt on August 15, 2006, 11:33:57
If you remember Wilkinsons had a big seed sale.

I am currently doing the wedding stationery for an area manager of wilkinsons and he has a bin bag full of seed packets.

I will be collecting them tomorrow, so will have a better idea what they are then, however I would think they will be flowers and vegetables.

I am quite happy to swap.
Anybody interested, please pm me.

Thanks

I too will be interested to know what you have.  Got to make a list of what I have collected so far so should be ready in next two days. Also, I bought a lot of Wilkinson's seeds when they were selling them at 1/4 of the original price.  Had a lovely time, its a great shop.

Have just found out about a plant called Knautea Macedonia but I don't there will be any of those so will post separately.
