Growing Guides

ELEPHANT

Not a true member of the garlic family but closer to a leek, these bulbs have a fresh, mild and sweet flavour. Each bulb is approximately 10-15cm across. Elephant garlic is best planted in the autumn for maximum size.
RED EPICURE

Similar in taste to other broad beans but offering unusual red beans. The beans retain their colour if steamed but this is lost if even lightly boiled. If picked young and tender they are good enough to eat raw in salads.
LONGOR

An excellent elongated banana-type variety with copper coloured skins and pink flesh. Each organic shallot yields 6-8 bulbs at harvest. Very easy to peel and slice. Great tasting sweet flavour! Harvest June-September.
MASHED POTATO

The plants are vigorous in growth, producing on average 5-6 fruits per plants. The bright white squashes hold their colour well and has soft buttery flesh which can be roasted and mashed for a delicious, low calorie alternative to potatoes.
