Welcome to our website. We hope you will find it easy to navigate and like our selection of vegetables and flowers.
We are a small company, based in West Wiltshire, specialising in seeds and plants for the Kitchen Garden. We have a huge range of chilli and tomato seeds and many of these can also be ordered as plants which are sent out in spring.
Please note that the website is set up for sending seeds to the UK and Europe only as we are not allowed to send seeds to many countries outside Europe. As we have had problems sending plants abroad in the past we now only send plants to addresses in the UK.
Our philosophy has always been to grow and try out as much of our range as possible, although there are some varieties that have made our range as a result of recommendations. Flavour is our number one priority.
We also have a shop at our nursery, where you can browse through our range at leisure. During August and September we host several 'Tomato Tastings', which are followed by 'Chilli Tastings' in September.
Our best wishes for a good growing season.
