Yes, I fear I really do have a problem. I can't resist seeds, and at this time of year around here, all of the garden centres are selling their seeds off cheap to make way for the Christmas decorations. I have enough squash seeds to completely cover at least 2 entire allotment with plants...and a similar amount with beans. I must be more organised next spring and sow more variety and use more slug bait to stop those pesky slimeballs from decimating my first plantings and leave me with a more limited palate.

.......and I thought MY seed bin was over-stuffed! Thanks to this foto, I don't feel so bad. hahaha. You can always call me if you find yourself at a garden center and feel the urge to buy seeds. I will encourage you to Buy, buy, BUY! Oh well, I always say that one can't have too many seeds for the coming season.
You say that like it's a BAD thing EJ! Nothing wrong with collecting seeds. I have a rather large collection myself
I have a whole tub (which used to hold 50 fatballs for the birds)full of seeds so collecting them is obviously catching!!
Seedaholic is good, far better than lots of other addictions I can think about. Keep it up, Emma. I'll support you.
I'm there for you sister :-D I share your addiction but my problem isn't that I buy seeds, I just collect them year after year after year I gather them from my morning glories, daylilies, sweet peas, money plants, columbines etc. I'll even nab them off of someone else's flowers
So much support, from like minded addicts. I stopped collecting seeds from the garden as I had piles of envelopes full of seeds...and no idea what they were for. You know what it is like...'oh yeah, I will remember them, I will label them later.' Six monthes later, no idea!
