Our story
Every seed we recommend has been chosen by people who actually grow these flowers — right here at Bishy Barnabees Cottage Garden in Norfolk. We know which varieties thrive in UK conditions, which produce the most abundant blooms and which are genuinely worth a gardener's time.
We grow, dry and harvest our flowers by hand on the farm — and when it comes to choosing which seeds to sell, we choose as growers, not as retailers. Every variety in our range is one we'd happily sow ourselves.
We're Melanie and Darryl, the team at Bishy Barnabees Cottage Garden.

"Great seeds. Have had germination after 4 days with a heat mat. Everything I buy from here germinates really well. I love the growing details on the back of the seed packets. Happy to be a repeat customer."
