My Free Seeds Have Disappeared !
expand_more
Rest assured if you choose 1 or more packets of free seeds they are in your cart and will come with your order. Once you have selected them and continue through the checkout, they do change the way they look to just a single line, however we do know all of the packets you have chosen. We are currently working on a fix to make this a bit clearer.

Shipping & returns
Do you ship Overseas?
expand_more
No, we only supply seeds throughout NZ. The documentation required to send seed overseas is costly, making it prohibitive. There are also varying rules and regulations from country to country.
How much will delivery cost?
expand_more
We have one flat rate for handling and delivery fees. This is currently $7.00 per order. There is no extra add on for our rural customers 🙂
How long will it take to receive my order?
expand_more
You should expect to receive your order within 7 working days in the busy time. Often it is much quicker than this.
Product information
Are your seeds chemically treated?
expand_more
Some of our seeds are chemically treated as they are not allowed into NZ unless they have met the MPI requirements. All chemically treated seed is identified on its packaging.
Where should I store my seeds?
expand_more
It's a good idea to store your seed at a constant temperature, away from hot potting sheds and glasshouses! An ideal place for storage is in the veggie compartment in your fridge if you have the room. Always fold your inner packet over, removing excess air. Popping a paperclip to keep it closed might help.
What does F1 Hybrid mean?
expand_more
These varieties have simply been manually cross-pollinated with other varieties in a controlled environment (no bees or wind.) The crosses are from the same species but have different characteristics.
Can I save the seeds from F1 hybrids and grow them?
expand_more
Yes, the seeds will grow, but, as with all OP (open-pollinated) seeds, the plant's height, colour, and other characteristics may vary. In contrast, F1 hybrids offer consistent results in these traits.
