Thanks Ken - i was considering Marion Kay, but wasn't sure what their postage fees were like.

Any idea?

I can’t recall exactly what I purchased last time, but it was around half a dozen items or so, totalling I the region £50-£60 and the MK invoice with shipping was just over $100 (paid via paypal) but you will (sadly) also have to pay UK import duty on top of that original bill, which the post office collect at point of delivery, or you can pay it in advance over phone, or online.

I think it cost me another £15 (approx.) on top. So it’s not particularly cheap, I guess.🤔

Hmmm - that does sound like it's getting a little dear.

Would you say it's worth it, in your opinion Ken?

Just grow it.

I've actually ordered some seeds also, but that will take a while:)

buying it dried, via amazon, will be fine.

If it wasn't for this virus you could buy plants at any farmer's market. It didn't grow good for me in Oklahoma.

This is my small beginnings to go in our garden...

The problem with savory is that you're supposed to harvest before it flowers, or pick the flowers, but that is a difficult task, since the plant is tiny and has many, many little flowers. It was tough on my eyes.

Struggling to find ground savory here in Australia.

If I were to put this in a coffee grinder would that get me there?
