Over the last few years I have been disappointed with my Brussel Sprouts. I have chopped and changed varieties but to no avail. Can anyone recommend a variety that:-
1 Tastes nice
2 Doesn't blow
3 Grows tall and has lots of big sprouts on it.

Hi George,
I would recommend to you that Brussels Sprout Bedford Darkmar 21 will fulfill your needs beautifully. I have been picking them since mid December and am still only halfway through them.

Please can you tell me where you got the seed from. I couldn't find a retail source on searching the web

Thanks all of you. I have a Kings Seed catalogue that came with a copy of Allotment Gardener.

I have just bought some from tuckers, 500 in the pack so if you still need some let me know, that is far more than i will ever need!
