Park Promotions

I just went for the Park Promotions petunias bargain http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/deals/park-promotions#petuniasurfinia
- the website design is the work of a beginner, and they only accept PayPal, but I can bear with them.

Just wanted to report that they do add £1.50 postage even though the MSE website says it's included... oh hold on, that's probably because I added an item. It was a 15p clearance item! But never mind, still a good price overall.

In fact I'm not certain what I'll get for the 15p (+£1.50!) as I can't click into the item description. It says seeds and "foil only with planting instructions" but nothing about how many seeds or anything. Quite a lot of the links didn't work for me, getting from search results into the actual items. And I used Google for a couple of site-specific searches (eg "basil site: park-promotions.co.uk"), which turned up pages that then gave me 404 errors; test pages I think.

Hence I feel whoever manages the website is a bit of an amateur - but all strength to their elbow, I'm behind anyone going for it without contracting out the techy parts which then get costed into prices they have to charge.

Still the total is only just over £10 and as long as the plants don't bring disease in with them, I'm happy.

Bought some sweet pea seeds from them, very poor germination rate with only two or three plants growing.
Wouldn't use them again even though they refunded me via PayPal.

Thanks for the warning. I'm never any good with seeds anyway, but it's the petunias I want really - and they're plug plants so easier to nurse back to health if nec. They haven't arrived yet but we'll see, when they're here, what they're like.
