Growing Guides

    CARGO

    British bred to crop well throughout the UK, with resistance to powdery mildew. Produces impressive 6-10kg/13-22lb fruits with tasty flesh and is great for carving at Halloween.

    NANTES 5

    The classic early carrot, but equally good for 'little and often' sowings through several months. Produces blunt ended carrots with good uniform roots. The great colour, flavour and a crisp texture make this variety an excellent addition to summer salads.

    EARLIBIRD

    The earliest maturing 'Supersweet' variety (having 2-3 times the sugar level of ordinary varieties), producing superb quality, deliciously sweet cobs. Improved tolerance to cold soil aids germination.

    ORMSKIRK

    An old reliable favourite. This smashing late savoy variety yields large, dark green heads which are of good flavour. It is particularly hardy and will tolerate harsh winter weather. We think this is the perfect Christmas savoy!
