Can anyone point me to the right place for unusual seeds?

I am looking for purple carrots, purple-red sprouts, blue sweetcorn... them sort of seeds.

Thompson and Morgan online do a variety of coloured carrots.

I saw some purple carrot seeds in Wilkinson. They also have carrots that look like round radishes. They look fun

I've got purple carrots, yellow beetroot, red-veined chard and tri-coloured pak choi from Thompson and Morgan, and stripy tomatoes (bit late for this year, though), white beetroot, purple climbing French beans, yellow dwarf French beans and yellow mangetout from The Real Seed Company (www.realseeds.co.uk).  Real Seeds have some other unusual varieties as well - I meant to try more but I haven't got the room!

If you want some really unusual seeds you might want to consider garden organic's heritage seed library, costs £20 to join but you will get sent a selection of seeds:

As HLS mentioned The Real Seed Company are good. Also Nicky's nursery have a wide selection and I've found them very efficient:

Found this site too: http://www.seedfest.co.uk/seeds/carrots/carrots.html

Hope you find what you're looking for.
