Large fruits, which remain green when ripe, with attractive yellow striping and excellent taste. In terms of appearance, this does what it says on the tin, but it does it very well.

Quite fleshy, with very good taste and looks wonderful with other red and yellow tomatoes on a plate or at market.

Price range: £2.10 through £4.40 Add to basket This product has multiple variants. The options may be chosen on the product pageKale – Red Russian (Organic)
Recognisable by its flat, purple-tinged and tooth-shaped leaves; this kale is hardy, frost tolerant and very versatile. A productive plant, it reaches 90cm in height and can be harvested throughout the winter becoming sweeter after a frost.
