Greetings and welcome to Sea Spring Seeds, a vegetable and herb seed company run by Joy and Michael Michaud.
We have always been passionate about vegetable growing and good eating. So we started a seed company to sell what we believe to be some of the best varieties available.
Of the dozens of companies selling seeds in the UK, why would you want to buy from Sea Spring Seeds? The answer is really quite simple:
Experience:
Between the two of us, we have been in the growing business for over seventy years. This includes twenty years on our market garden in west Dorset, where we have grown vegetables of every type imaginable, selling to restaurants and our local green grocer, and for the last 15 years sold chillies through our associated company, Peppers by Post.
Testing:
Every variety we sell we have grown and tasted. We run trials on our market garden and also ask other gardeners to try the varieties to see how they perform in different conditions. Variety testing is an on-going process, and trials are done every year so that we can make improvements to our catalgue.
Our aim is to offer seed of productive, good-tasting varieties that we like to grow ourselves. After all, why grow an ordinary vegetable when you can grow an outstanding one?

Dorset Naga® (Capsicum chinense), measuring about 1,000,000 Scoville
Heat Units, is one of the hottest chillies in the world. Its scorching heat is combined with a distinctive fruity aroma, making it a truly exceptional chilli.

Dorset Naga® was developed by us from the Bangladeshi chilli naga morich (sometimes spelt naga morrich). The original stock came from an Asian shop in Bournemouth, and it took us several years to develop the uniform and distinct population.
Other ultra hot chillies go under an assortment of names such as bhut jolokia, bih jolokia and naga jolokia. Although closely related they are not the same as Dorset Naga. Genuine seeds of Dorset Naga are produced only by us on our market garden in Dorset. Likewise, Seed Spring Seeds is the only authorised seller of Dorset Naga seeds. This means that if you don’t purchase Dorset Naga from us, it may not be the real thing. So, get the genuine article – buy from Sea Spring Seeds and accept no substitutes. |
