Why just one variety?

Join the club-must be rubbish soil here for them as they failed about 3 years in the row.Next year I'll try again but with Moneta and Ruby Queen(not boltardy)

I've tried Moneta but it was quite honestly useless up here. Last year I grew Cylindra and Chioggia - I started them in modules in the tunnel and planted out when I felt they were ready (and when I had the time). Both performed admirably so will do the same again this year - Cylindra was the star of the show but Chioggia wins on looks.

OK,you justified yourself.
I thought about trying a few leeks next year but definitely not Musselburgh.................

Your loss!

Blue Solaise were carp for me, but sometimes you've got to experiment and find out what suits your taste and your area!

That's the thing-something is carp for some people but works well for the others

I'm giving Blue Solaise a go next year as one of my leek types. Dunno how well they'll work but nice to go for something different and they might become a favourite.

Oh thanks. My asparagus peas to try something new for next year arrived yesterday. You mean they don't taste like asparagus and/or peas? Mind you, I fall for it all the time. Last year I bought some special mustard greens from Thailand, being very fond of Asian food. I'm sorry, I'll read that again, I was very fond of Asian food.

Sorry about that sarraceniac, we all have different tastes and hopefully yours will be better than mine . I also fried mine in butter, that may not have been a good move, i never really gave them a second chance after that.
Looking on the bright side though, they had really beautiful deep red flowers that attracted the bees

Right then,Snadg,I got Bleu Solaise and Musselburgh and will try them both
