Borage & Phaccelia seeds

[Pete D]

Borage @ £50 a kilo and Phacelia @ £15.00 a kilo at Bee Happy plants.
I am looking to sow some of both in early spring anybody know any cheaper ?
Also Agastache Foeniculum only seems to be available in normal seed packet size, anyone know a supplier of these in say 100g ?
Already got some Echium Vulgare so by the time I get the above and get it all in the field behind my hives I am hoping for some happy bees come summer...............probably ignore it and go for Rape instead :rofl

Ah thanks for that, Borage @ £48, No Phacelia listed but I will give them a call, its only half hour drive from here.
They do sunflowers too which I was after.

I got my Echium Vulgare from Emmorsgate Seeds at half the price quoted here so it pays to shop about.
Thanks

Cotswold Seeds was where we bought some kilos during the year.

Thought they were cheap but their site is not working at present so wait for the New Year.

Phacelia now appears in several wild flower meadow mixes though if is not a native species to the UK
