Johnsons Sowing and Growing Guide
The pleasure of raising plants from seed...
In most cases this is also substantially less expensive than buying plants and makes available a much wider choice of varieties. Although some are much easier than others and there are varieties that will only come true if raised from cuttings or by some other vegetative means, a huge variety of plants can be readily raised in this way.
Of course a certain amount of care is needed. You cannot just throw seeds in any old how or at any time of the year and expect good results. A little trouble taken to understand and meet their needs, however, will be well rewarded and anyone can do it, even a complete beginner. There are no such things as green fingers or lack of them!
