    This little catalogue appeared with the junk mail today. I've not heard of D.T.Brown but they're worth checking out as their seeds are a reasonable price.

        I think they're part of the Mr Fothergill's group. Westland also own a few well known seed companies.

          I've used them, so can recommend. Agree with @noisette47 I understand they are now owned by Mr Fothergill's

            Yes, D.T Brown where one of the more established seed merchants, think they had been on the go for over 100 years before they were bought out. They had been on the go longer than Fothergill's and Westland combined. Westland is now the fastest growing garden companies in Europe. Question is, when companies buy out the competition does the consumer benefit from it?

              I'll definitely take a look at their seeds when buying next year. :)

                  I've used this company a few years back ,by what I remember their pkts contained a generous amount of seed ,prices were reasonable I paid 99p per pkt , germination was good too.
