Growing Guides

• 

  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.

• 

  ALL THE YEAR ROUND

  All The Year Round is a good old standby variety as it is highly reliable. The quality of this vegetable truely is the mark of a good gardener with large curds surrounded by dark green leaves. Sow October in a cold frame, plant out in March, cut in June. Sow February to April, cut late June to September.
