Hi Neil they are like in a tear off matchbox packet, like when you would tear off a match, but the stick has a seed in it and you push the stick into the compost, if that makes sense.   ??? ??? ???         ;D ;D ;D

Yes!

Seems a bit of a waste and probebly more expensive.
I have already given a full pack away, but if you would like half a pack let me know.

Yup, think I got them in a cracker a couple of years ago, and yup, all grew and I now have a lovely clump of them in the garden and on the plot.
