Hi Rosebud,

We have coriander seeds that you can have. Coriander is very easy to grow - you can sow them between March and August according to the seed packets. Sow them
at intervals of for example 4 weeks so you get a 'dip-drip' supply instead of bunches all at once. Sow them about 1cm (1/2 inch) deep with a spacing of about 20cm x 30cm (8inch x 12inch) for mature plants and a lot closer for cut and come again.

Hope that helped a bit and pm you address if you want some of our seeds.

I once sowed some ancient seeds from of a spice jar on the shelf and was astonished when they germinated, and so fast. It is a lovely herb.
