  • Sorrel

    I like sorrel in salads and fancy trying sorrel soup. But what type do I need seed-wise? French seems good? Or are they all the same?

    if you're not sure get some seed of all sorts & sow it & see what you like best SBP Taste is very subjective, I refer you to the olive debate earlier on !!

    Never be afraid to try something new.

      Oh but there you were displaying lack of taste!

      Just wondered if any of the grapes had tried different types.

        hi

        i am growing buckler leaf sorrel and it is very good. The taste is hard to describe but a cross between lemon and apple peal could be accurate..? very good to add a bite to a salad. Grows well and the pests dont seem to bother it- although it is surrounded in coffee grounds- so the slugs are steering clear of this anyway.
        i have let some go to seed and should have a constant supply forever..i hope.


        wood sorrel grows wild in most damp woodland sites and also grows in shady corners of an alloment- it is great too- this is just the acid apple flavour.


        but try everything and see what grows for you
