  SALAD BOWL GREEN

  This is the classic cut-and-come-again lettuce. Pick a few frilly leaves for your salads as required, or cut it whole as a mature, unhearted head. Either way, it not only looks attractive on the plate, but tastes delicious too. Forms large lime-green rosettes of delicate tender deep-notched oak-like leaves.

• 

  LONGOR

  An excellent elongated banana-type variety with copper coloured skins and pink flesh. Each organic shallot yields 6-8 bulbs at harvest. Very easy to peel and slice. Great tasting sweet flavour! Harvest June-September.

• 

  STROMBOLI

  An excellent strain which produces tight, dark green, good quality heads. It is early to mature from an autumn sowing, the plants are vigorous and are not prone to 'blindness'.

• 

  TENDERSTEM GREEN INSPIRATION

  Packed with goodness, the long, thin stems of this variety are very tender and edible, so you can produce more food from each plant. It looks and tastes rather like asparagus. Remove the main head to encourage side shoots.
