    NANTES 5

    The classic early carrot, but equally good for 'little and often' sowings through several months. Produces blunt ended carrots with good uniform roots. The great colour, flavour and a crisp texture make this variety an excellent addition to summer salads.

    UCHIKI KURI

    An onion-shaped squash with orange skin and flesh with a good flavour. Early to mature and a very good keeping variety.

    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.

    RUBY

    Bred for extra sweetness, Ruby has dark purple-skinned globe shaped roots with creamy yellow flesh and is a really useful winter vegetable. A high dry matter content ensures excellent winter hardiness and it also shows good resistance to Powdery Mildew.
