Any suggestions of suppliers for seed potatoes, apart from the usual companies - Marshalls, Unwins etc?
I fancy trying Cosmos this year, and need to order some whilst they are still available.
Thanks.

Tuckers seem to sell Cosmos.
Have you not got a garden centre nearby with open sacks of many varieties so you can buy a few potatoes of several varieties to try?
My garden centre doesn't sell Cosmos, but I see that Tuckers do. I assume they are a reputable supplier?

I got 20 charlottes from thompson morgan - only 2.99... Currently chitting away, although they gave me a real variety of sizes and the smaller ones seem to be shrivelling already when really I've got at least a month before I want to out them out I reckon.
Aldi are selling seed spuds at £1.49. 'Desiree' It was a big bag too, compared to TM at £4.99 for 20, it's a bargin, I have all mine though.
I've just bought half a stone of Wiljas for £3.50 from our allotment shop. Is there not an allotment nearby that will sell you some?
