£3.00Pak Choi has been grown in China for about 1500 years. It is used whole when it is about 10cm tall or grown larger so that the individual leaves can be used. Pak Choi can be used raw in salads but when it is cooked, it is slightly spicy in taste. Joi Choi is an excellent variety with dark green leaves and pure white stems which grow uniformly and neatly. It is slow to bolt and has a good frost resistance. Vigorous hybrid, white stemmed variety, matures to 25-35cm, dense heavy heads, slow-bolting, pure white petioles (leaf stalks) and rich green leaves. Suitable for baby leaf.

£3.00(Very Old pre 1600’s) A biennial parsley subspecies with much thicker roots than types cultivated for their leaves & is grown for its beige, stout plump little carrot-like root, which tastes like a carrot-celery, kohl robi cross. Used in parts of Europe in soups, stews & simply as a vegetable & may replace celeriac, parsnips, turnips, or carrots in dishes. Leaves used in the same way as regular parsley. Even though it looks similar to the parsnip, it tastes quite different & the similarity of the names is a coincidence.

£3.00Produces masses of pods containing tiny, incredibly sweet flavoured peas. They are so sweet they can be eaten raw in salads but are equally as delicious when cooked. To get the sweetest flavour, peas are best cooked when picked young and cooked within 30 minutes of harvest, before the sugar has turned to starch. It is advisable to add some net or sticks as support for plants to climb and hold the crop. The plant will grow to a height of about 60cm. Plant 15cm apart in rows 60cm apart.
