Welcome to Missenden Seeds

Hi, I’m Carolyn and I run Missenden Seeds, a small, independent seed company based in Great Missenden in the beautiful Chiltern Hills.

I absolutely love varieties of perennials, biennials and annuals which make beautiful cut flowers and are equally as good for pollinators. I believe that growing flowers should be simple and sustainable. All of the seeds and tubers are grown by me (often in the company of my Springer Spaniel). I do not import or repackage seeds or dahlia tubers. I also only stock open-pollinated varieties from which you can save seed year after year - you will see no F1 varieties here. My blog pages give advice on seed saving.

I use no chemicals and grow everything peat free. As all the seeds are open-pollinated, there is always the chance that the odd seedling may not appear exactly the same as its parent, but it could be something even lovelier.

Delivery

Orders will be dispatched within two working days and send out by Royal Mail. If you would like to pay for a faster delivery service please get in touch. If you live in Great Missenden or the surrounding villages (up to a 3 mile radius) I can do free local delivery - please get in touch either before or after ordering.

Returns

I will accept returns within 14 days if unopened. I cannot cover the cost of the return. I test all seeds to ensure good germination rates. I cannot accept returns due to germination issues as so many variables can affect germination.
