Lettuce – Red Salad Bowl (Organic)
£1.98 Add to basketLettuce – Red Salad Bowl (Organic)
Fast growing lettuce with long, burgundy red and deeply cut leaves.. This lettuce is known for its excellent taste and resistance to bolt. It has a non-heading growth habit with sweet, succulent oakleaf type leaves. We love it for its tenderness and cheerfulness in salads. As the name suggests one lettuce is usually enough to fill a whole salad bowl.
Best grown in spring, early summer and fall. However it can be grown in the hotter summer months too as it’s slow to bolt.
‘Red Salad Bowl’ was awarded the Royal Horticultural Society’s Award of Garden Merit (AGM) in 1993.

Kohlrabi – Purple Delicacy (Organic)
£2.20 Add to basketKohlrabi – Purple Delicacy (Organic)
A very attractive purple heritage variety, fast growing and well suited to early and late plantings due to its cold hardiness. Delikatess Blue is certainly our shining star for early and late season crops. It grows fast and consistently and is ready to harvest after 8-12 weeks. Although sometimes considered a root vegetable, kohlrabi is actually the swollen stem of the plant. The whole plant can be eaten, the large leaves can be cooked like kale and smaller leaves make a pretty and very tasty addition to salads. The stem can be cooked in various ways, steamed, stir fried, baked etc, but to be honest we think it tastes better raw. Eaten raw it is similar to apple in taste and texture but with a slightly nuttier flavour. This variety is best harvested when tennis ball-sized as it can become woody when left to grow much larger.
