RE: Sweet pea supplier...needs R/T ticket...

Hi John...it might have been easy to google, but the results are not
good..this is what was sent to me in this regard...

'I have a question for you, every year for the past 10 years I have grown
sweet peas and have bought them from Boltons Sweet Peas in England,
Birdbrook, Halstead, Essex to be exact and I have been unsuccessful at
reaching them this past year. I tried phoning, email and a web site that was
never finished. I wondered if any of your fellow gardeners have ever
planted Boltons sweet peas? or if anybody would perhaps have a new address
for them. It was most unusual for them not to send their catalogue out last
year. Any help you could give me would be much appreciated.  They had the
most wonderful seed, big hardy stems, large frilly flowers and lots of
scent. I purchased seed from Kings seeds in England this
year and am so disappointed in them, nothing like Boltons.'

That is why I sent this note to the garden writers :)

I know I'm not the only one who knows how to "google" a thought, a topic or
a name, but this one was too easy...

just one listing and they are a garden centre (note sp,) in Essex....

Try Thompson & Morgan, or Burpee...or is there that specific variety that
you need that is only handed down Father(Bolton) to Son(Bolton) !!??
