You do keep tempting me Tim ;). What sort are they please.

They look just like my red epicure, and if they are, they are very pretty and delish!

Are these sown in Spring Tim and are they Red Epicure? If so do they stay pink when cooked or do they go green?
When I get old I don't want people thinking
                      "What a sweet little old lady"........
                             I want em saying
                    "Oh Crap! Whats she up to now ?"

If you steam them when young you can keep the pink... but mostly when boiled they go green... very tasty though!  :)

Sown 24 April - planted 25 May - that's what was ready on 4 plants. Fairly small as yet.

What I  meant was even steaming fails to hold their colour.
