Hey everyone! I'm new to gardening and I'm looking for some advice. I have a south-facing garden that I want to brighten up with flowers like sunflowers, cosmos, calendulas, and lavender. I've checked out places like B&Q, Dobies, B&M, and even Amazon, but I'm wondering where the best options are for buying seeds. I definitely want to avoid messing this up, so any suggestions for reliable sources would be appreciated. Thanks!

You can find sunflowers, cosmos, and calendula seeds almost anywhere; they're pretty reliable! If you're looking for something specific, consider checking out online retailers like Moles Seeds or Chiltern Seeds. Just a heads-up, lavender can be tricky from seed, so it might be better to buy small plants instead since they’re perennial. Also, consider trying the 'Throw to Grow' seeds from Moles Seeds; I've had great success with those!

I think I'll hold off on the lavender and go for a small plant instead. The 'Throw to Grow' idea sounds great—thanks a ton!
