This is a delicacy: excellent flavour and texture from both the leaves and the thin pale green ribs. You can grow this as a cut-&-come-again crop for salads but do leave some plants to grow on and enjoy at a larger size when cooking will bring out its sweetness. Price for 40 seeds.

With its large leaves and broad white ribs this traditional variety cannot be overlooked. It is a vigorous grower and will cope with whatever the summer weather throws at it until autumn frosts become penetrating. Should you have any of your bountiful crop left-over than your pet chickens and rabbits will also appreciate it. Price for 40 seeds.

More or less trouble free! It can be used for summer and autumn production as a ‘cut and come again’ crop. It is possible to over winter it and use for a second season. For the best of all flavour cook it as soon as possible after cutting. Price for 40 seeds

No prizes available for guessing that the delicious shiny dark green leaves have ruby red ribs and stems! It is very ornamental but the mild flavour makes it a kitchen favourite too – I love it with garlic cream mushrooms, I have also used it on pizza, in soups and it’s probably needless to say it’s perfect in salads. Price for 40 seeds.
