    CHERRY FALLS

    (Determinate) Grow something different and really tasty in those hanging baskets and windowboxes. The gently cascading habit produces plenty of delicious 'cherry' tomatoes and it is earlier than most greenhouse varieties. Can be grown in the greenhouse or outdoors.

    GOWRIE

    Resistant to both clubroot and powdery mildew, Gowrie is very winter hardy due to the high dry matter. Perfect to use throughout autumn and into the new year from October to late January. This purple-skinned variety has good, firm flesh with consistent colour and very good taste

    ATLANTIC GIANT

    Try growing your own monster pumpkins! Pumpkin 'Dill's Atlantic Giant holds the Canadian and American records for size, with fruits weighing in at over 800 kg (1763lb). This spectacular variety will certainly impress the neighbours, but be sure to allow plenty of space for its long trailing stems.

    SALAD BOWL RED

    The gorgeous red-tinged bronze leaves of this lovely loose-leaf lettuce are deeply lobed, like an oak leaf, and look very pretty in salads. It's a cut-and-come-again type, so you can pick the outer leaves over several weeks and the heart continues producing more.
