    LADY DI

    Red Flowered. Because the seeds develop only slowly in the beans, this delicious, stringless variety can be picked over a long period with no loss of quality or texture. Excellent for both the kitchen and the show bench, Lady Di also has good heat tolerance.

    TOM THUMB

    A much-loved lettuce producing delicious little butter-heads on fast growing plants. Grow under cloches for an extra early crop. It is also an excellent summer lettuce as it tolerates high temperatures and resists bolting better than larger varieties.
