Buy Seeds Online

Buying seeds online

If you haven't bought anything online before, seeds are probably a great place to start.

Quality - Recurring complaints around seed purchases tend to be around the quality of the seeds and also the seeds germinating into something other than what is shown on the packet. One way to get around this is to read the reviews of the various online seed retailers left by our members before buying.

Most websites have special delivery prices for seeds as they are small and posted in jiffy bags

Delivery - Postage of seeds is quite cheap so most retailers have special prices if your order consists solely of seeds and have fixed postage prices regardless of the number of packets of seed you order. Delivery times hover around the 7 days mark. Unwins charge £1.75 (even though they state £1.25 in some places on their website) for postage and take 3-5 working days (rising to 10 days in peak periods). Suttons charge £0.95 and take 7-10 days.

Cost - Most online retailers have regular offers and watch out for special discount codes on this website. You can compare prices of seeds using our price comparison search found in the top right of this page.

What to buy - Why not have a look through the fantastic photos Grows on You members have uploaded of their own gardens for some inspiration. Or have a try of the garden colour tool. Alternatively why not jump straight through to one of the online seed retailers listed below to browse their websites for ideas.
