About Fothergill's
From seed to harvest
Vegetable seeds are a big draw, from courgettes and tomatoes to peas, beans and salad leaves. Flower seeds add colour to borders, and there are fruit seeds and young plants for a quicker start. An organic seed range suits gardeners avoiding chemicals. Seed batches are tested for germination.
Kit for the potting shed
The growing essentials cover compost, fertiliser, propagators and watering systems, plus durable garden tools. Buying seeds and kit in one order helps reach the £40 free delivery mark.
