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.

    DELIKATES

    A very tasty patty pan squash, which produces plenty of white-skinned fruits that can be treated like courgettes. If left to grow larger, hollow out the seed cavity and stuff with a favourite savoury filling and bake. The plants resist powdery mildew well, so stay productive longer.

    MAMMOTH

    An orange-skinned pumpkin with yellow flesh, which gardeners have grown to a weight of over 50kg. Recommended for exhibition. This variety has been trialled, tested and recommended by the National Institute of Agricultural Botany.

    CHERRY FALLS

    (Determinate) Grow something different and really tasty in those hanging baskets and windowboxes. The gently cascading habit produces plenty of delicious 'cherry' tomatoes and it is earlier than most greenhouse varieties. Can be grown in the greenhouse or outdoors.
