About Herboo
Herboo is a UK gardening brand built to make growing from seed feel simple, creative and doable. We focus on flower, herb and vegetable seeds, along with practical advice to help people grow with more confidence, whether they have a garden, a balcony or just a windowsill.
We choose our seed varieties for reliability, beauty and suitability for real growing conditions. Our focus is on seeds that gardeners can genuinely enjoy growing at home, supported by straightforward advice and clear sowing guidance.
You can buy Herboo seeds directly from our online shop. We offer a growing range of seed packets and gardening gifts, with delivery across the UK. You can also explore seasonal advice and growing inspiration through our gardening journal.
Customers often mention the simplicity of the instructions, the thought put into the products, and the enjoyment of growing them. You can also find feedback through our social channels and independent review platforms such as Trustpilot where available.

We source our seeds from trusted British and European suppliers, with an emphasis on quality and good growing performance. We look for varieties that are enjoyable to grow and well suited to gardeners in the UK.

Growing & Products
We usually recommend sowing in small batches, especially if you are growing a variety for the first time. That way, if weather, pests or timing get in the way, you still have seeds left for another try.
Each variety has slightly different needs, but most seeds do best with the right balance of warmth, moisture and light. We include clear growing guidance where needed, and you can find more detailed help in our gardening journal.
Yes, unless a variety is clearly marked as an F1 hybrid, our seeds are open-pollinated and GMO-free.
Because seeds and growing products are perishable, we are not generally able to accept returns. If there is a problem with your order, or something is not right, please contact us within 28 days and we will do our best to help.
