Pink Fir Apple,Charlotte,Nicola,Wilja there are lots to choose. You won't be able to grow Anya as they are only English grade seed and can not be grown in Scotland.

That's confusing as they were first "developed "just down the road from me near Dundee in 1995,what's the reason?

How far north can we grow Anya? Here in North Wales it gets pretty cold and damp. I was thinking of trying them this season.

There is no Scottish grown Anya seed this year and it is against the law for anyone to plant them in Scotland as they do not have the correct european passport to come into this country. I am not joking about the passport
A certain supermarket has control of the variety and controls who grows them.

No I am totally serious about the passports. It costs us thousands of pounds every year to print them onto labels for people to ignore and throw away

Yes there is always next year.
As for knowing the score I had better just say NO comment

My tatties arrived and the Anya have those "sparkly" bits,so either they are Scottish or some one at T&M is dusting 'em
