United KingdomGreat product the sunflower sprouted quickly and about 16 in total. Kids loved and excited to move out into the garden when the weather warms up.
United KingdomMy daughter had amazing time planting her cress garden. She loved the little card board characters she could add and didn’t have to wait long until the cress grew. She enjoyed eating it as much as growing it. Looking forward to seeing the strawberries grow soon- would highly recommend and definitely order from here again.
United KingdomVery good packaging. Unfortunately after a week strawberry seeds have still not sprouted. Herbs also not sprouted. Only 1 out of the 6 pots has begun coming through. Have not planted the sunflowers yet.
Hi Maame, Thanks for your review. Strawberries do take a fair bit longer to germinate, up to 4 weeks. Keep them warm and damp and they should germinate soon. Please let us know how you get on
United KingdomThese sunflowers sprouted within days! Fast delivery, lovely products. Thank you
United KingdomNice little kit, easy to start. Just waiting for shoots to grow, but a great idea to teach kids about gardening and growing your on vegetables.

Northern Ireland
Due to Brexit, Royal Mail are the only carrier to deliver our items to Northern Ireland.

Other carriers will delivery to NI, but will cost more. Please get in touch if you are unsure.
Packaging
We strongly believe that it is our duty to reduce our environmental impact wherever we can. Therefore, we re-use delivery boxes when appropriate. Don't be alarmed if the box has branding from other companies on it: it will have been carefully packed and have our 'Gardening for Kids' sticker on it. Wherever possible we will pack your parcel plastic free. We are aiming to go completely plastic-free packaging in the very near future.
