EU seed supplier recommendations

5 replies

Currently based in Northern Ireland and am fairly new to gardening. Which sucks as Brexit means that I can’t order the lovely seeds from Chiltern, Sarah Raven and the like 😢.

Does anyone have any EU seed suppliers they would recommend or even U.K. ones that still deliver to NI? Thanks to FG I was able to get some beautiful bulbs ordered and I’m currently salivating over their dahlia selection. But I would like to get some seed packets too.

Just bumping this for you, OP. Hopefully someone will be about now who has some ideas.

Hi OP. I haven't personally used them but you could try www.bloomling.com/ (Austrian, but website is available in English) or kokopelli-semences.fr/fr (currently available only in French).

Bloomling is quite commercial and has a good range including hybrids, heirlooms, and some organic seeds.

Kokopelli is a non-profit that deals only with open pollinated heirloom varieties, and seeks to preserve varieties that would otherwise be lost.

I hope other posters will be along soon with more suggestions.

Firstly, Trueharvest Seeds in NI are expanding from just doing wildflowers into a range of vegetable seeds, herbs, seed potatoes etc.

In Ireland, there's Brown Envelope Seeds and the Irish Seed Savers also have an online shop selling a pretty wide range.

Further afield, try Reinsaat, Bingenheimer (both have english translations on their website), if you speak French look at Biaugerme, if Spanish try Plantaromed.

In the past I’ve used seedaholic who I believe are based in Ireland and have a very broad selection.

I’ve found bloomling very reliable.
