The flavour is superb and this variety in particular is known for its reliability and consistent high quality.

Will keep well into the winter if stored properly.

Good resistance to bolting.

Please note delivery is from March. Planting is March - April. These can not be over wintered!

A RHS Award of Garden Merit variety.
