The Story
The long tapering, wedge shaped roots with smooth white skin, have considerable canker resistance. Highly recommended for both the table and exhibition use. An essential part of your Sunday roast! RHS Award of Garden Merit winner. Great beginner variety.
Growing Information
Sow late February-May outdoors in well-cultivated ground manured for a previous crop. Lift for use as required. (32-36 weeks maturity.)
Sowing Information
For container growing - sow thinly, direct into the compost. For raised beds try sowing in 30cm squares, spacing four seeds every 15cm (6") 15mm ( 1/2") deep. Germination 10- 28 days. As the seedlings emerge, remove spare seedlings to leave one per station (then you will have 9 plants per square). Alternatively sow in rows 30cm (12") apart. Sowing ➞ cropping 28-32 weeks.
