| | Welcome...
Welcome to our specialist seed company based in the West Country, UK.
We are often asked - why the name "Secret Seeds"? Well in part, because our stock plants are grown in many 'secret' locations throughout the Westcountry, and also - nature has a tendency to come up with a few surprises. But founder Sally Sherry in 1998 also thought it had a good 'ring' to it!!
We strive to offer an ever changing selection of rare and unusual plants to keen gardeners and nurseries all over the world - there are now well over 1,300 species to choose from. With the exception of a few exotics, most of our seeds are produced from our own organically grown stock plants.
