Kitchen Garden magazine for April, on sale in Morrisons (£6.99) has 18 packets of "free" seeds. Probably same offer in other shops.
I confess that I bought it! The seeds have a long sowby date 27/28 and are from Kings & MrF. Full size packets - not like T&M ones with other mags.
Carrot - Chantenay red cored
Turnip - purple top milan
Celery Red Giant
Spring onion - evergreen bunching
Romanesco cauliflower
Cabbage Golden Acre/Primo
Kale Scarlet
Broccoli raab -60day
Broccoli - early purple sprouting
Fennel Romanesco
Herbs - Dill, Sage, Thyme
Courgette Summer Sun (Yellow & round  )
Scorzonera Long Black Maxima
Flowers - French marigold Honeycomb, Shirley Poppy & Antirrhinum Tom Thumb Mix.

I haven't really looked at the Mag! There's rarely anything new that I haven't seen before.
There's an offer on the cover for 12 Tomato "Sungold Supersweet" plugs - Free with Free delivery but there's a catch, somewhere. Think you have to buy some of the other plug plants. I haven't looked into it, yet! The website is www. YOUGARDEN.COM/KGW105 if anyone is interested.

Sungold Supersweet is the same as Orangeto, apparently. Yougarden are a bit of a dodgy company from what I've heard. They also sell on QVC, which doesn't fill me with confidence.

Flowers - French marigold Honeycomb, Shirley Poppy & Antirrhinum Tom Thumb Mix. Bit the bullet and partook, but I've been duped. No carots, turnip, spring onion,cabbage,Kale,French Marigold,Poppy,Antirinhhum or Dill! The rest were as you listed 8 packets in total 8 packets less than you!  I can't seem to find anywhere in the mag stating what seeds should be there, or else I would complain? I may complain to them some way anyway as shy bairns get nowt!
Just an Edit, I have now emailed them!
