Kale for Carrots!

[Hazel at the Hill]

I seem to have ended up with a disproportionate number of carrots, but no kale at all!

I've a few of:
Paris Market (stump rooted)
Adelaide
Resistafly f1
Autumn king
systan f1
early nantes
parmax (stump rooted)

See what I mean!? Any one care for a swap?

I know this may sound silly but what is Kale?

Are you talking about seeds Hazel ? If so PM address and I will send Kale for carrots.

[Hazel at the Hill]

I am indeed, Alice - haven't got as far as seedlings yet! Any particular carrots that you have your eye on, or shall I surprise you?! Will PM my addy to you.

WW - kale is a member of the brassica family - and you pick the crinkly leaves from late autumn to early spring, so a good one for the winter months! Leaves are good steamed and tossed in a little butter - yum!

Autumn King sounds good Hazel. PM on way to you.

This sounds nice. If I had the room I might actually look into some myself. But finding the space in my garden with all the things I'm growing is very difficult. LOL. Many thanks Hazel.

I don't have any kale seed to swap but have been trying to get parmex seed to no avail - anything else you fancy and I will see if I have it?

I thought I might try celery, celeriac and kohl rabi, Shirl - but I'd got them down for next year rather than this, so no worries if you don't have.....will send you the some parmex if you pm me your addy - going to the PO at lunchtime so if you get a move on I'll get them in the lunchtime post!

Ooo - nice avatar too!

[shirlthegirl43]

Have PM'd you Hazel. Thanks for the comment on the Avatar! It sounds as good as it looks too!

[Hazel at the Hill]

Had to look twice - thought it was R2D2 at first!

[shirlthegirl43]

Not R2D2 - Wurlitzer 2104 from 1957 - Madmax's pride and joy
