		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.

 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.

  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?
