  • Veg Wish List - Next Season

    Hello everyone,
    What would be great to try would be:
    - Curry Plants (or plants to make curry)
    - Coffee Plant (UK growable)
    - Cocoa Plant (UK growable)
    - Low Cost, Easy Set-up, Water Butt-Watering System
    - Rice Seeds (UK growable)
    - A plant to rid soil of onion/garlic rot

    What would you love to have (veg/herbs-wise) Next Season?!

      yellow courgettes, them big chili shaped sweet red peppers, and on page 184 of the T&M seed catalog they have some cracking looking orange skinned, cherry plum tomatoes called 'orange Santa' that look a bit yummy!

      I fancy trying my hand at the gorgeous looking 'Turks turban squash' and we have got some 'Mammoth' onion seeds to sow in January too

      Them are the extras that take my fancy on to o the basics for next year.

              I'm growing these Wren - in my greenhouse. I have longish green fruits on them already - I saved the seed from some I bought in T*sco. Cheap and cheerful, that's me!

                Thanks for your responses - Think I'll add another few.
                -Wheat
                -Supersteak Tomatoes (for my 'big' corner idea)
                - and Honey -non-veg but making some would be interesting.

                  yes I'd like bees to make honey. I was also like a way to irradicate bindweed instantly and organically without digging it.

                    Would like a nice mature lemon and/or lime tree. Have tried a lot of new stuff this year so my wish list isn't so long now as it was this time last year.

                      I think i will do same as you then Flummery.

                      I was not sure if they were some sort of F1 hybrid or not and so i was going to purchase the seed, but if you are having success with your seeds direct from the fruit i will save myself some money too. I will enjoy a char grilled Romano red pepper for my tea, with onions and mushrooms, a nice chop, some new potatoes and get my free seeds while i am about it

                      Thank you for the tip.

                        I would love a chocolate bar plant, money tree and a happy tree

                            I would like!!
                            - eucalyptus (UK grown one that can be contained in a pot)
                            - cherry (ditto)
                            - bamboo (one that will grow usable garden canes without taking over the world)
                            - to get some soapwort to germinate
                            - wild / perrennial strawbs
                            - funny coloured veg
                            - a shed and water butt for the allotment
                            - a free and inexhaustible supply of organic mulching material...near my plot.

                            PS I'm going to have a go at rice as well!! Got some seeds from Jungle seeds - worth a try, I reckon
