Greens
Below are details of the varieties of Purple Sprouting Broccoli, Brussel Sprouts, Calabrese, Cauliflower, Rhubard Chard, Swiss Chard, Kale and Spinach we will have available as plants this year.
All the varieties of greens are sown in seed trays and then pricked out into individual cells in 24 cell plug trays. Each tray can be easily divided into individual plants, enabling the purchase of individaul plants if a whole tray is not required. Additionally, this has the benefit of allowing varieties to be mixed within a single tray, so you canb gave a mixture of varieties and still only pay the whole tray price.
