Hi everyone I tend to grow all year round as my main cauli and want to try something that will see us through the winter next year any suggestions?
I grow several varieties:
Candid charm - successional sowing will give harvest June through to early november. if left will grow to the size of footballs.

I have tried 2 christmas caulis - Belot and Drakar but both failed so I am trying this new variety which actually has a longer harvest period:

Purple Cape... if you don't need a white cauli... :)
Thanks for the replies, like the sound of Wallaby.
We grew Candid Charm this year and it was harvested right up to December
Anything like last winter and you will have a job to get any to survive
Of course, but that was a bit exceptional. Let's hope its not a harbinger of another Little Ice Age!
