    GIANT WINTER

    Giant Winter, as its name suggests, is a winter variety with large dark green leaves of good flavour. It can be very hardy and stands for a long time when ready.

    KALIBOS

    A delicious novelty - it has red, pointed heads - is notable for its sweet flavour and is perfect grated raw into salads or cooked. It originally came from Eastern Europe and is well worth trying.

    DESIREE

    One of Britain's most popular and best-loved varieties. This red-skinned favourite does well on all soils and its yellow, waxy textured flesh has a lovely flavour. It can become very large and slightly mis-shapen, but is nevertheless very versatile. Boil, mash, chip or saute.
