Growing Guides

IRONMAN

An outstandingly vigorous variety which yields tasty and uniform dome-shaped blue-green heads. High tolerance to common diseases. This top quality variety is suitable for closer spacings if growing for baby heads.
SARPO MIRA

This late maincrop produces a large yield of red, oval potatoes that can store for a long period of time in the right conditions. Potato Sarpo Mira is a great all-rounder for all culinary dishes with its flavoursome floury taste.
SOLENT WIGHT

(Soft neck) Described as having an aroma and bouquet without compare, this garlic produces approximately 15 cloves per bulb. 'Solent Wight' is the longest keeping garlic and if harvested in July or August and dried, it can keep until April the following year!
ATLANTIC GIANT

Try growing your own monster pumpkins! Pumpkin 'Dill's Atlantic Giant holds the Canadian and American records for size, with fruits weighing in at over 800 kg (1763lb). This spectacular variety will certainly impress the neighbours, but be sure to allow plenty of space for its long trailing stems.
