    Can do you the female cukes and some festival squash, have unopened pack of the former, in fact choice of two varieties, Cucino (4 seeds per pack) and Prima Top (5 seeds per pack)... they'd have been horrible expensive if I hadn'tpicked them up in Wyevales 50p clearout I should have half a dozen Festivals I can let you have plus I do have a fiar list of other squashes....


    Squash/pumpkin/courgette:
    Waltham Butternut 10
    Becky F1 15
    Atlantic Giant 10
    Hooligan 15
    Striato Di Italia 15
    Tondo di Piacenza 15
    Winter Festival F1 15
    Defender 15
    Yugoslav Finger 5
    Marina di Choggia 7
    Rouge vif D'Etampes 3
    Gigante di Napoli 10
    Turks Turban 15
    Crown Prince 10
    Delicata 19
    Hunter F1 5
    Paris pickling gherkin 130



    Wish List
    Squash not on my list especially potimarron. Little Gem and musquee de provence, but not spagetti squash, patty-pans of any description, crooknecks or the bigger hubbards or Bon-Bon cos it's a rampaging monster that ate a couple of my other squash plants this year and I don't care if it tastes nice, the fruits are too big to be practicable [/rant]...
    Parsnip Avonresistor or Javelin or similar shortish root...
    Sarpo potatos
    Hamburg Parsley
    Aubergines (anything really)
    A cauliflower that will grow ok on a lightish soil
    Pickling onions of all types.
    Main crop onions of all types though not those listed above
    Giant onions of all types except Kelsae and Giant Spanish.
    Red Cabbage
    Wierd things (I grow onions that look like trees, blue popcorn, have a four-foot wide row of a vegetable I've never tasted trying to eat one of my paths, and next year I'm having a go at growing all my own curry spices... I think you know where I'm coming from.... )

      I think I've got a spare Galeux D'Eysines somewhere... aka the squash of Dorian Gray... it starts out as a particularly camp shade of salmon pink then gets kinda warty in storage.... by spring it looks like it's covered in broken peanut shells....

      I'd be up for some Aisla Craigs (maybe 30-50 seeds?) and a few of each aubergine (5 or so of each?)

        hi chriscross,
        sorry not comming straight back to you,have been google the squashes,

        I take it you would like the onion seeds and a few of the 2 varieties of aubergines,

        I have some avonresister parsnips,as on your wish list,king seed,july 010,a good 1/3rd of a packet,BUT cannot,garantee the viability of the seed,as parsnips can be sods to germinate,most people buy fresh every year,i was going to try the next year,but you can have them if you still wish,
        Would love to swap or whatever for
        cucumber cuchino,the 4 seeds
        atlantic winter giant 2 seeds
        winter festival 4 seeds
        giante di napoli 4 seeds
        delicata 4 seeds
        turks turban 4 seeds
        galaxo d eysines 4 seeds
        Subject to them being in date for next year,and not self saved seed,as they cross pollinate
        please let me know what you decide
        cheers LD

          Hi LD,

          Got it packed up and ready to go. I found an extra Galeux D'Eysines (there were 6 in my packet when there were only supposed to be 5) so I've enclosed two for you as you had expressed an interest. I think our post has already been collected for today so they'll post out tomorrow. Your stuff has arrived safe and sound (thanks muchly!)
