I was just wondering if anyone had ever heard of these or used them?

  • The organic gardening organisation Garden Organic maintain a large heritage seed collection of varieties of old flowers and vegatables that are not generally available elsewhere. Just type in Garden Organic for full details. Or, if you want to go to a commercial grower I use a little company in Wales, just type in The Real Seed Catalogue. They have lots of 19th century oddities and their service is very good.
