Have a look at SC's post at https://gardenandgossip.org/showthread.php?tid=115 and follow the link to Real Seeds website. That'll tell you everything you need to know about saving seeds.

Thank you Veggie, and SC! I'll bookmark that and have a look when I have a moment

Purple Orach
Cucumber - Wautoma

Plus Three seeds I've promised to save seeds from to send back into the Incredible Seed Library :-
Gardener's Sweetheart Tomato
Neckargold CFB
Siberian Podarok Cucumber

If you recognise there names, most of them are on Real Seeds website.

I've also received a few extra seeds to share with you lovely lot!

Gardener's Ecstasy Tomato
Roveja peas
Vates Blue Curled Kale
Borage
Soapwort

If anyone wants to grow these and can save a few seeds to share amongst us later in the year, stake your claim now.

PS This is a test to see who reads my posts.

I'd rather fancy the Roveja peas, but suspect I might struggle to squeeze them in this year!

I can send you some if you want to try, Pros. I don't think they're very big plants. The pea seeds are tiny, not much bigger than sweetpea seeds. You can probably grow quite a lot in a small bed - maybe even a large planter.

Yes ….. I read your posts.but I’m not on Facebook.
so will only see your posts on this forum.

I picked up some summer "bulbs" from B&Q -
6 x dahlia Bishop of Llandaff (dark foliage, red flower)
9 x begonia Sunray (trailing, apricot colours)

I'll start them off next month.

I would do the soapwort? I already have borage - so could save from that if anyone was interested.

Soapworts supposed to be invasive - if that's a problem, Scarlet?

I don't think so. I'll have a read but I'm sure it would be fine. It can't be anymore invasive than tree spinach

There's a ground cover variety and a tall one... is it labelled just as soapwort?
