Lidl seeds show on the website as being in from thurs-they are oddly listed under the valentines day tab lol. So you can buy a sexy nightie alongside your veggie seeds rofl.

Basic packs are 29p or 2 packs for 50p (these are the smaller packets), the bigger seed packs (normally beans/peas/sunflowers etc) are 49p or 5 for £2 and the premium range (seed discs/seed tapes etc) are £1.49 or 2 for £2.

Lidl are also doing some house plants and primroses as well, but not a full blown gardening event as such just yet.

  • I grew their dwarf wax beans last year - only thing that went mad on the allotment and outstripped the runners! Still got loads in the freezer. Couldn't keep up with them. Well worth the 29p or whatever!

  • Thanks. Popped into Aldi yesterday and picked up some sweet peas and cucumber seeds for 30p a pack.

    Are these seeds any good will they grow in horse manure? I only ask because I want stable seeds and thought hay I might give them a go but don't want to gallop into the unknown. The only hurdle is that the store is some way to travel but I may trot up there if this rein holds off a bit.;)
  • Posted this on the cheap seeds thread then thought it might be of use to those following this thread :
    I bought some Lidl seeds and it appears they still have some of last years stock which they are putting at the front of their carousel displays. Look a little further back and you will find the new packet design, it has a manila tag with the plant name printed on the front and a longer sow by date.
    There also appears to be a printing mistake. There are packs which are labelled runner beans with a picture of French beans and the growing instructions are for climbing French beans. The beans are white and too small to be runner beans. I think they must be climbing French beans as their dwarf beans this year are a variety called Saxa.

    Yes, I found this too. ;)
