Leeks, purple or white sprouting broccoli - check with these some ok now, some past it -, cabbages, kales and cauli.

I ordered some mustard greens and oriental salad vegetable seeds from the real seed catalogue (www.realseeds.co.uk) and can't wait to see how they turn out.  Most have to be planted after mid summer.  I always plant kale around this time, especially the red varieties and pick them into the following spring.

I have GOT to try kale if I can get a bed ready, everyone seems to love it
