Yes thank you Peter and all involved. Having counted cactus seeds for the seedlist, I can only imagine the patience to count mesemb seeds!

I can't see any seed lists anywhere on the website.
Is there any chance of some sort of limited taster so I know what I've missed out on?

Sorry, my mistake. Because older lists contain potentially important location information for poachers the decision was taken to remove them earlier this year. I believe a member can request a particular year’s copy from Suzanne Mace, contact details on website.

They changed the wrapping, I see? Good!

I have never been a fan of tiny seeds wrapped up in bendy kitchen paper as it has been in all the years before. Not easy to wrap them up I have experienced. But also terrible to get them out without spilling. Just pouring seeds from a more rigid paper bag is much better.

Ours arrived today as well, Thanks Peter.
Must have been a very busy weekend to get so many delivered today.

Just need to make some space in the propagator and get them sown now.
