Calabrese "Corvet".
« on: August 30, 2017, 17:08 »
Anyone know where I can get some seeds as they were the best tasting summer broccoli I ever grew,
I work very hard so don't expect me to think as well.

Seeds were  scarce a few years ago, last time you asked

A bit nearer - in France  :D
https://www.seeds-gallery.shop/en/home/broccoli-corvet-seeds-brassicaceae-brassica-oleracea.html

but it is for 200 seeds, so maybe worth the postage?

Thanks MOS. Just registered, selected the seeds, got to check-out and am told it is too heavy! Have contacted them so hope it can be sorted. You said it was 200 seeds - HOW BIG ARE THEY???  :D

Wallis seeds ?

http://wallis-seeds.co.uk/details.php?page_id=9&sub_id=5&product_id=1976&add=View+%26+Purchase

Edit: above link fails I think but go to the main page\vegetables easier enough to navigate

http://wallis-seeds.co.uk

Based in Chelmsford, Essex.

I've never used them so cannot vouch but buy a small amount, it's less to lose should they turn out not to be reputable.

I used to use Wallis Seeds many  years ago, and always found the service excellent.
