This variety was trialled by Marshalls customers and had such good results that we had to put it into our range!

This variety starts with huge heads early in the season and I'm still harvesting in November five months later. It's tasty and reliable and just goes on forever. We use it as steamed as a separate vegetable, stir fried, soup, anything! Brilliant!

Though only 3 plants survived from the whole pack they were brilliant. Nice sized plants giving a good sized head. Will grow again for sure
