They seemed very expensive to me, for what they are (assuming we're thinking
of the same things). Would be easier to buy the items yourself and pack
them into a box and write "Mini Allotment" on them.

It would be cheaper definitely but I like the idea of it being
inclusive with all the advice also in the box? I'll take another look
to see if I can copy anything!

I don't know how these compare price-wise but they're plants not

Ah, I suppose that could help. You could just include an allotment book,
though. :-) (Book People, for example, tend to sell a cheap one each time
I'm browing the site ... which is probably why Nick has quite a few, often
the same title!)
