  CLARET

  Broccoli Claret is a vigorous and high yielding modern hybrid, producing thick, succulent spears with good colour, flavour and quality when other garden vegetables are scarce. Good enough to serve alone steamed and lashed with butter.

• 

  KESTREL

  A wonderful old fashioned taste, which absorbs less fat when it is cooking. Good for the show bench and resistant to slugs. Colour - white, blue. Shape - long oval. Boil, steam, mash, chip, saute, bake or roast.

  INVITATION

  A strong-growing, Club Root resistant swede which also benefits from Powdery Mildew resistance and improved winter hardiness over other varieties.

  DEFENDER

  Courgette Defender has an open bush habit, making it very easy to harvest. It is also very early to crop (sometimes in June). It is a heavy yielding variety which is resistant to Cucumber Mosaic Virus. Deep green fruits are produced all summer long if cropped regularly.
