It's a pity he doesn't accept Paypal payments as there are some interesting things on that list!

Steve. He accepts credit cards. Just send an email with your request then you can send your details in 2or 3 parts. Really good seed although a lot needs drier conditions than we have.

Susan, water lilies need drier conditions than we can offer at the moment!

Steve - Susan is right. I've found ordering from Alan easy and the seed is very good and in generous packets too.

Payment is not difficult compared to some other suppliers I've dealt with, and the seed quality is excellent.  Well done Alan.

Alan also accept cash notes. The portions are generous and germination is very good.
