An ancient variety that is famously hardy, productive, and nutritious.

The roots are rounded and red on top. Pick young when it is tender and sweet.

Cream root with red top.

Green Top (a.k.a. 'Collet Vert')
A long keeping variety chosen as being particularly tasty and with good texture. This one has pointy round roots, a nice pale yellow colour, and green on top.

We noticed it was quite a bit more cold-resistant  than the others last autumn. Can make really big roots from an early sowing.

Yellow root with green top.

'Joan'
This swede was bred specially for home gardeners. It is a great swede with yellow-fleshed, sweet round roots that are purple on top. We thought is was notably the best of the bunch in our 2008 trials.

This variety was bred specially for home gardeners, by the Morton family. It has good club-root resistance too.
