A great winter hardy variety that shows good disease resistance. The stems remain in top condition for long periods of time and they are slow to bulb which allows extended harvests. A delicious mild flavour that is perfect in salads, soups and stir-fries. Adaptable in a range of soils.
Winner of an RHS Award of Garden Merit for reliability and good performance.
