Must have veg variety?

[Snadger]

Imagine someone buys all your seeds for you but, allows you to pick one cultivar of one vegetable or flower! What would it be?

I don't want a list from each of you, or '' well it would have to be XXXX and YYYYY, but also ZZZZ''

ONLY ONE ALLOWED!!

Mine would be Hungarian Ham Onions which were a great success for me this year!

Whats yours?

PS Remember, only one!

What variety or cultivar though?

[scared55]

Ask me that in a few years when we have tried a few. So far, the only one we have grown is Bonanza HF1

Cripes Snader, that's a tricky one. But, if push comes to shove, give me a barrowload of Sugar Bon mangetout seeds, love em.

Oooh after much thought, (couldn't make my mind up between flowers or vegetables) it will have to be Bright Lights Swiss Chard. It brings so much colour and beauty to the veg plot and so much taste and nutrition to my plate.

mine has to be carrots - the rainbow variety, anything that got the kids excited about planting, growing and eating veg without grumbling has to be worth their weight in gold, kids encouraged me to buy more of these seeds for next year already.

Pose a tricky one, why don't you, Snadge??

Not having had a full growing year, I would go AT THE MOMENT (for all my moans!) for runner beans variety is reg-next-plot. It's my fault that there has been such a glut (half a carrier bag 3 times a week for the past 5 weeks) from 44 seeds.

So they win the 'prolific' prize, and I have to say that they have tasted DIVINE and not in the least stringy.

Good thread tho' - food for thought, and all that.

Spuds (I have Irish ancestry a couple of generations back so I love my Murphys!) - Arran Pilot at the mo but I change my favourite every 2 or 3 years.

tatties for me too - and if I have to pick a variety then I've only ever grown one so unfair! That one is Maris Piper!

Foremost potato's, pure quality

Wow what a difficult dicision, only one ! I will go for the korean summer squash. It's variety is hybrid green BT. Very productive, produce very early, since mid april until now, robust vine, resistant to all kind of fungal diseses, produce loads of beautiful summer squashes and the taste is very nice ( baked, in soup, grill, stir fry ).

Peas did fabulously for me this year, I've had them raw in salads, lightly cooked with pasta, bacon and stilton (yum!) and I tried a new variety, Misty. They were super-productive, easy to pick as the pods hung outside the main foliage, repeat-flowering and so succulent. Definitely one of my main-stays now.
