Description
An excellent tasty variety with its purple skin and creamy yellow flesh with a good winter hardiness. Perfect for boiling and mashing.
Harvest
August to December
Growing Instructions
Plant 30cm apart in firm but well drained soil. Keep well watered until established and more importantly in dry weather as this will prevent split woody tasting skins. Lift and eat within a week of picking.
Tips
Swede can be left in the ground over winter which will extend your harvesting period.
