Pak Choi (Tatsoi) white stem.
I have a small packet of the above (quite a few seeds ) In my ignorance ( ;D) I haven't a clue what they are. If anybody wants them PM me .
They were amongst a whole lot of seeds I bought from Seedfest.Co.

SEEDS ALL GONE NOW (Boscombe's will be posted Monday) Good luck.
Lorna, googled a description for you:-
This graceful vegetable with Chinese origins has spread throughout Asia and beyond, developing a wide range of varieties. The most typical Pak Choi features dark green leaves atop white spoon-shaped upright stems. Stems vary considerably in thickness and shape, and in some varieties they are green. One variety produces a rosette of dark green leaves close to the ground. There are specialty pak chois that have frilly leaves to light yellow-green color. The slight mustardy flavor of Pak Choi makes it a delightful addition to stir-fries, soups, noodle and meat dishes, and salads, if the young leaves are used. In China, the coarser leaves are often pickled. Some Chinese cooks also dip the leaves in boiling water and hang them out to dry in the sun for several days. Drying enables this highly perishable vegetable to be stored for winter months. Asian cooks use the entire plant at many stages of development.
So why not keep a few seeds back for yourself? Great in stir-fries and loads of recipes if you google.
Go on! Be adventurous - you know you want to :D 8)
PS....would LOVE a few, but only about 6-8 if I may....running out of space, as I'm sure you are, but it's nice to have a couple of plants.
I'll mail you my addy.
Thanks a bunch, Lish

Biscombe. I still have a few left which you are welcome to. PM me your address and will post tomorrow. I don't need anything in return (what a list you have :)) I only have a small garden and due to the generosity of members I should be covering every inch of garden soon.
Regards Lorna.
Hello Biscombe,
It's gotta be asked.....what sort of acreage do you have to grow all that lot? 8)
Cheers! Lishka
