Oh my, May leads us into summer and all it offers… and what fits summer better than salads galore!
You can be ahead of the game with a whole range of scrummy choices ready to gather from your garden. That’s exactly what the Scrummy Salad Collection is all about.
And you don’t need acres of space. Trays, tubs, pots and planters are perfect for squeezing in a bit of scrumptiousness. The spaces between other veg are ideal too! Pop in some speedy salads and they’ll cover the soil, make the most of a bit of shelter, and turn every spare spot into something worth picking.
Beetroot Cylindra – nothing goes to waste here… both leaves and roots are great i salads. Pull them young or leave them to grow longer (it is called Cylindra after all!). Around 9 weeks and they’re ready. And yes… sowing a little at a time works brilliantly here too. (50 seeds)
Cabbage Kalibos – a lovely heirloom with exceptional flavour. Soft, tender leaves that are sweet and crisp: perfect for salad and coleslaw. The vibrant colour is a real standout too, both in the garden and on your plate. Try surrounding each one with salad leaves for a proper colour pop! (20 seeds)
Cucumber Piccolino F1 –fabulous mini fruits, just the right size for one meal. Crisp, juicy and really refreshing. And don’t forget, cucumbers are perfect with mint and dill… homemade tzatziki anyone? (especially good scooped up with endive ribs!) (4 seeds)
Endive Panaclieri – those rose-tinted mid ribs are just made for scooping dips, houmous and all sorts of summer bits. The frilly leaves add great texture too. Easy, versatile, and another good cut-and-come-again. (50 seeds)
Kale Red Ruble – fabulous dark wine-red leaves, full of tasty goodness. Sow a pinch every couple of weeks and you’ll have a steady supply. Grow as s a cut-&-come-again and it’ll keep coming back for more to enjoy. (100 seeds)
Radish Sparkler – a speedy summer star! Bright red round roots with that neat white tip. Crisp, fresh and full of flavour. The trick, as always… sow little and often. (100 seeds)
Rocket Belezia – all the spicy pepperiness you would expect from the wild rocket, but in a well-behaved form. Add a handful for a real zing or just a leaf or two to add a little tang.! (50 seeds)
🌱 A pinch here, a pot there… and before you know it, you’ll have your own scrummy salad pick and mix!
