I want to try international kidney next year but I can only find them  on-line with Alan Romans  but the postage is I think   £7.  Wyevale and my other local garden centre Webbs are not stocking them.  Most disappointing.

If you can wait until January and live close to Coverntry area Garden organic (Ryton) usually have these as part of their potato day. You buy by the tuber though so don't whether this makes them expensive or not. I usually buy small amounts of  about half a dozen varieties so is okay for me. Not sure what i would do with 3 kg of one type of seed spud. ???

Thanks Suzanne.  I am about 30 miles away. Depending on the weather I will try to go there.  Thanks again.
