Growing Guides

    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.

    SNOWBALL

    A very popular, quick-growing, round variety with white skin and solid flesh of mild flavour. Specially recommended for table and exhibition.

    ONION DE PARIS

    Onion de Paris gives a delicious crop of small, rather flat, white-skinned bulbs which are perfect either for pickling or adding to casseroles or salads. It has a good, full flavour.

    MINICOLE

    Autumn/Winter Cutting (Ball-Head) - Very popular because the rather small, oval heads stand in good condition for 12 weeks or more with no deterioration. Even better, it has a good flavour and is a good choice for smaller gardens or where space is limited.
