Salad is a fundamental linchpin of British summertime. Because of this, gardeners grow salad for summer year after year, producing their favourite ingredients. There’s nothing more satisfying than serving up a plate of homegrown, fresh salad at your next barbeque.
Our latest ‘Grow Salad For Summer’ collection of seeds makes it easier than ever to grow your own. We have selected the very best varieties of plants that fit into categories depending on how long it takes to grow them. This way you can choose homegrown ingredients depending on how fast they grow! Check out some of our favourites below:
