good mixed leaf seed site

Pussygalore · 02-06-2014, 02:48 PM

this is where we used to buy our mixed leaf seeds, they all grow well in tubs/trays etc and can be cut and will grow again, they have some really good mixes and you can share them with your shelled friends. We first saw them at the garden show at the NEC and they had them in big low pots/dishes, they grow quickly either in or out and its nice to have a good selection when you want them.

That's a good site PG, thanks for sharing.

they were really nice and grew very quickly, it was nice to be able to cut off what you wanted and the dishes were shared with both torts and birds, they are also one of the only sites I found that included lambs lettuce in the mix and some even have borage anyway everyone ate them.

Great site

Think I'm about to spend some more money on the torts

Thanks for sharing

That's the thing PG, I can share them with my birds, tortoises and even the guineas can have some. Love he convenience of having it all there in one place with plenty to go round.

we had them in the greenhouse but they'd be fine outside as well, I did put the site up on here a few years back but finding an old pack of seeds reminded me, we were really impressed with the big bowls of lovely leaves at the show apart from looking nice they tasted yummy and the seeds are a good price, at least I think so, you can't get the different mixes in the shops.

Hi, I would love to try and grow my own food for my tort.
Which mix would you recommend for a Hermanns tortoise?

Can I grow in just topsoil as I don't want to grow stuff that will be harmful to feed my Hermann (when I get it!)
