    Garden Organic's Adopt A Veg

Species : St George Cauliflour

About the St George Cauliflour : This hardy old favourite was commercially available until only recently and is still in demand by many gardeners. A vigorous variety with a spreading habit, so give it lots of space!

HSL Member Philip Rainford says, “Huge, football-sized curds, which are ready for cutting at the end of March from a May sowing. One cauliflower will provide several meals for two!” Ann Noden describes hers as “magnificent specimens!”.

From just £15.00 you can adopt the St George Cauliflour, helping the Heritage Seed Library to safeguard the future of this vegetable, and help safeguard its future.

About the Heritage Seed Library

The Heritage Seed Library help conserve and make available vegetable varieties that don’t feature in modern seed catalogues. Once we have enough seed to distribute, all our seed varieties will become available to our members. Currently about 200 varieties feature in our Seed Catalogue.

They are doing this to ensure that these precious breeds and strains don’t disappear forever and to safeguard our diverse heritage for future generations.

A a DETR funded Seed Search was carried out between 1997 and 2000 with the aim to seek out and save regional, family and historic vegetable varieties. The The Heritage Seed Library Guardians take on the responsibility for growing these endangered seeds for us. Their work in growing and gathering these seeds is essential to developing and growing our seed stock.
