Growing Guides

• 

  LYON

  Produces heavy yields of long thick white stems that have a delicious flavour and are also good for the show bench. Has good winter hardiness for lifting from October through to December.

• 

  ALDERMAN

  A tall variety, which can be grown like runner beans, this Victorian variety has much more than historical value. We think you will agree that with heavy crops of long pods, each holding up to 11 large and delicious peas, Alderman is the finest tall pea, with the advantage of a long harvesting period.

• 

  MARIS PEER

  A national favourite with firm texture; high numbers. A familiar second early producing a large crop of round, small/medium, white-fleshed tubers that are waxy and tasty. Colour - white. Shape- short oval. New, boil, steam or chip.

• 

  IRONMAN

  An outstandingly vigorous variety which yields tasty and uniform dome-shaped blue-green heads. High tolerance to common diseases. This top quality variety is suitable for closer spacings if growing for baby heads.
