    ST VALERY

    The exhibitor's carrot par excellence, it was introduced in the 1880s, but still takes some beating. A high yielding maincrop, the uniform roots have a splendid colour and very good flavour.

    WHITE LISBON WINTER HARDY

    This is a variety that produces the same onion as White Lisbon but has been selected specifically for its winter hardiness making it suitable only for autumn sowing for a spring harvest. The onions that are produced have long white stems with bright green tops and are slow to form a bulb, which contains a delicious mild flavour.

    TURKS TURBAN

    The distinctive shape and colouration of this variety may seem more ornamental than edible, but Turks Turban is a delicious winter squash for baking, steaming or turning into soup. The trailing plants produce fruits up to 30cm/12in across, the flesh of which is sweet and golden orange. This variety is also a fine keeper.
