Will do. But Make it a small bubble envelope so the seeds dont get crushed in the mail.

Believe it or not, I don't have one. In West Texas, only what we plant in our yards grows. That's cause of not much rain fall.

Hmmm...ground elder and Ivy.
Ground Elder romps throughout my mums garden and one of the gardens I work in (which keeps me gainfully employed  ) and Ivy because it creeps through the fence from my neighbours garden, quietly strangling everything in it's way. Hate them both!

I cant say there is anything i really hate, except the usual weeds of course, that make all our lives miserable.One thing i refuse to have in my garden is a budlia, i bought one 2 years and ended up with about 30! they tuck themselves into the tiniest cracks, even my neighbour moaned at me, because he had too many growing in his garden , where they had self seeded, i even had one growing in my gutter, settled into a bit of dirt.This is going to sound daft, but has anyone been really close to a nettle (white) and noticed how beautiful they really are??
Shall i leave now??

Certainly not Catkins.  Nettle flowers, especially the white ones that you mentioned, are beautiful!!
Mind you I didn't think about their beauty when, as was a child, I fell into a bed of stinging nettles!!!

ouch! i cant imagine what that must have felt like. The last stinger that got me was on the end of my thumb, the tiniest sting, but it burned and annoyed me for days. Although i did sit on a red ants nest once,  but i dont wanna talk about it
