Description for Letterbox Grow Your Own Salad Mix not available
This is a great little collection to fill those awkward spots most gardens have. Tolerating quite a bit of shade (or full sun), as well as most types of soils, these fab new little groundcover roses really are so versatile and easy to grow. From the newest of breeding, they are classified as 'Multiflora', meaning they produce hundreds of smaller flowers in summer and autumn, creating an absolute feast for the eyes whilst filling in all those gaps in beds and borders. Tried and tested in commercial landscape plantings, where they get almost no maintenance or help, they form neat mounds of flowers, and have good disease resistance, so really are easy to care for. One trim back hard each spring before they start growing really is all they need, plus a couple of feeds a year. Simple! Supplied as established plants in 9cm pots, well-branched, they can be planted out any week of the year you can get a spade in the ground! In this Fruity Collection, you get one each of: 'Giulietta' - lovely pale primrose yellow 'Baby Masquerade' - lovely peach melba two tone flowers 'Perle d'Alcanade' - cerise berry red
'Pink Fir Apple' is an unusual variety. This easy-to-grow second early potato is extremely productive, with huge harvests of up to 35-40 or more evenly sized tubers from each plant. These lovely potatoes have an unusual elongated shape with pink skins and tender creamy yellow flesh and a nutty flavour. Their waxy texture remains firm during cooking, making them a perfect choice for potato salad, but also great for boiling and chipping. There is absolutely no need to peel them unless you are using them for mash. A worthy recipient of the RHS Award of Garden Merit, 'Pink Fir Apple' has good resistance to disease and its compact habit means it will tolerate fairly exposed positions. Once the seed potatoes have produced shoots or chits, they will be ready to plant directly into a prepared bed or large bags or containers from mid-March, preferably after the frosts have gone. Young potatoes can be harvested from 13-17 weeks after planting. Supplied as a 2.5kg bag of seed potatoes (approx. 30-35 tubers) ready to prepare indoors for planting out in the spring.
'Jazzy' is a fairly new variety that is quickly establishing itself as a British favourite - both in the garden and in the kitchen! This easy-to-grow second early potato is extremely productive, with huge harvests of up to 35-50 or more evenly sized tubers from each plant. These lovely small potatoes have a consistently good oval shape with thin, creamy white skins and shallow eyes, as well as tender white flesh that simply bursts with flavour. Their waxy texture remains firm during cooking, making them a perfect choice for potato salad, but also great for boiling, roasting, steaming, crushing or mashing. There is absolutely no need to peel them unless you are using them for mash. A worthy recipient of the RHS Award of Garden Merit, 'Jazzy' has good resistance to disease and its compact habit means it will tolerate fairly exposed positions. Once the seed potatoes have produced shoots or chits, they will be ready to plant directly into a prepared bed or large bags or containers from mid-March, preferably after the frosts have gone. Young potatoes can be harvested from 13-17 weeks after planting. If not harvesting them all as second early crops, 'Jazzy' will keep well in the soil, developing into larger tubers of a quality maincrop character. Supplied as a 2.5kg bag of seed potatoes (approx. 30-35 tubers) ready to prepare indoors for planting out in the spring.

Once a simple wild leaf, rocket has been in cultivation for centuries in its native Mediterranean countries and is now one of the most popular fresh culinary ingredients used in British kitchens today. A satisfying and easy crop to grow, it is quick to germinate and gives masses of fresh green leaves over a long season. Its distinctive peppery flavour adds an extra dimension to salads and many other hot and cold dishes, and the dark green, frilly leaves make a pretty garnish that is so tasty it is rarely left on the plate! Also highly nutritious, rocket is rich in potassium and vitamin C.
