Growing Guides

PEPPERMINT

Peppermint is a new and extremely attractive two-tone Swiss chard. which produces spectacular coloured leaves once the plants have established. Graduating from flamingo pink to white and with deep green coloured leaves, this variety of chard will not only add flurries of colour to your vegetable patch but can decorate any flower border it is added to.
HARRIER

One of the quickest maturing varieties producing good yields of fruit in just over 3 months. Fruit have a sweet flesh and average 1kg in weight.
CELEBRATION

Pink Flowered. If you cannot find room in the vegetable garden for a Celebration, try growing a 'wigwam' or two of this attractive, pink flowered runner in the flower border. But it's not just a pretty flower! This British-bred winner of an AGM from the RHS produces plenty of long, succulent, fleshy pods up to 30cm/12in long.
NORWICH

This 'second early' Nantes-type hybrid is simply delicious! The smooth, cylindrical roots, up to 8in in length, have an excellent colour and very little core. Strong top growth makes lifting the roots easy, and the plants are remarkable for their health and vigour.
