I buy mine on Seeds for Africa (online shop). They are currently out of stock but will come back in stock late September or early October, just in time to sow them (I asked the staff, as I'm looking to buy some too). Just be careful to not sow them too late (buy as soon as they come in stock). To avoid delivery fee, you can collect the seeds at their shop. The seeds are also available on Seeds and Plants South Africa (online shop), but the delivery fee is quite high on that website. Hope this helps.
