Are people interested in giving seeds for Christmas 🎄? If so, What are some good combinations to make up? What will grow well & make the start to the New Year lovely? 🌸🥕🌱 Merry Christmas - Susies 💜 Seeds xx

Advertising - yet again. lol

Aren't we all too old to wait for seeds to germinate?

 

I know I am.

 

Buy seedlings or grown plants is my go-to.

LOL..........................

Wouldn't it depend on where people live? Climate etc?

 

I've heard of giving people plants but don't know that I would give seeds unless someone asked specifically for them.

I honestly couldn’t tell you the last time I planted seeds. 
I do know I bought a pkt of tomato seeds about 4yrs ago and threw them in my fridge crisper because I didn’t have time to plant them at that time.  
They’re still there! 😂

I would never buy someone seeds, because everyone's tastes are different as to what they want in the garden. I would also never buy seeds because they take too long to germinate (apart from beans, I'll buy bean seeds, but never flowers). I'd much rather buy seedlings or plants. 

 

Looks like blatant advertising to me. Maybe advertise on Facebook. You might get more interest, although I doubt it.

I might give seeds as a gift to an inquisitive child, but it would be in a pack with pot and growing medium included. None of the adults I know would want seeds as a gift- then again we swap cuttings, seedlings ( and sometimes seeds) when they are available.

I think the verdict's in.

You're not likely to get a big boost in sales from people madly gift buying for Christmas. 😁

 

Seeds still sell though, usually to people wanting them for their own gardening ventures.

Maybe just concentrate especially on those people can plant pretty much immediately if they buy.

I look at seeds in shops sometimes but I am always put off if the sowing season is 6 months away.
