I think Thompson & Morgan stock these wrinklie1.

hye will come with instructions, but basically you can plant them out in the ground as long as it is not frozen. Don't cosset them indoors as they need some cold to help develop flower buds.

Hope that helps a bit  ;)

I would recommend D.T.Brown because I got twelve plants from them in Spring for £9.95 and they were well-packed and of a very good quality and value, and the taste... YUMMMMY!!

I work very hard so don't expect me to think as well.

Hi,

Got mine from Mr Fothergills, good plants and lot of different varieties!
Also buy a so called everbearer variety for berries over a longer period!

As for T&M if you buy from that lot you'll be disappointed and sorry!
