Thanks VC. I did find that company this morning. But you can't add the seed to the basket?! So I guessed they're out of stock.

The other year I was disappointed that my purple sprouts tasted the same as green ones.

I think 5 varieties is more then enough. Because 12 is a little excessive even by my standards .


You're a lovely lovely lady

Are you sure? I'd be happy to send you the lot in case you change your mind

1st couple time I tried to grow Evesham Special - always a disappointment. This year growing Brilliant F1 Hybrid. that said, not up to SP standard.

Thank you VC. My seeds arrived

I cut a stem of mine today lovely looking crop, only to find them infested with tiny grey ant-like critters, never seem them before
But I took off all the Brussel's outside leaves, soaked them (the Brussels and the critters )in salt water and then rinsed them off.
No sign of the critters after that - so they are now in the freezer.
