4.   Asparagus (gorgeous);

So many lovely herbs to choose from, but it has to be my flat leaf parsley.  I've been picking it for months and it hasn't bolted yet.

Ooo, yea, my parsley (curled and flat leaf) have been great - still going strong.  And I couldnt believe how easy it was to grow coriander - had way too much.  Chives are my fave though - liven up any dish:  best was roasted large 2nd earlies with butter and freshly chopped chives - delish  :tongue2:

1. Peas - I'll plant loads more next year and some might make it to the pan, not just be eaten as sweets.
2. Runner beans.
3. Courgettes (and marrows, that way I get an extra vote)
4. Beetroot.
5. Baby corn - I'll have to plant far more next year, as it was gorgeous.
