Mine aren't in yet. I'll be planting Seven Hills, another the name of which I forget (the seeds are all in the shed) and a rather old packet of Evesham Special. I'm not sure how many of each I'll grow on.

I'm planting just two as it's only for my OH on Christmas day!

about 50 severn hills here, beware dont come to christmas dinner, it could get a little overpowering, especially if you dont like sprouts.

My first seedlings died, so i've planted some more which just broke the surface yesterday. my ambition is to be able to eat these on Christmas day (i'm hoping for about 6 plants)

We've got nine plants on the go this year, we planned on 18 last year, but ended up with seven, due to a plague of caterpillars.  Will have closer netting this year, and take more care.

This year I sowed Bosworth, Falstaff, Long Island and Trafalgar in peat pots, the labels got mixed up so we'll just have to take what comes.   ::) ::) ::)
