    FLYAWAY

    The one to grow if carrot fly is a problem in your garden, for it has some resistance to this pest. Early, sweet, blunt-ended carrots of excellent colour and flavour.

    ARUNDEL F1

    The firm, fairly large buttons are packed tightly round the stem to give a high yield and, despite their size, are remarkably mild and sweet, with not a hint of bitterness. Plenty of really tasty sprouts from this exclusive early to mid-season, vigorous sprout.

    HUNDREDS AND THOUSANDS

    (Determinate) Perfect for baskets, window boxes or raised patio containers, the vigorous, easy-to-grow, cascading plants live up to their name, producing literally thousands of sweet, juicy, bite-sized tomatoes throughout the whole summer. Small cherry fruited varieties for basket or container growing outdoors.
