Well thanks to suggestions off this thread, I'm going to try Cape Gooseberry and Butternut Squash this year. Thanks for the ideas.

Spaceship squash  for me. Don't know what they taste like but they sure look good!

In some ways it's all new for me as I haven't been able to grow veg since 2005.  But I've never grown celeriac or shallots before, so looking forward to seeing how they turn out.  Also I have planted a row of Camassias and am planning on actually taking the plunge and eating some!

Sounds fascinating, will have to look them out.

I've been given some 'Chocolate Cherry' vine tomato and 'Sunzilla' sunflower seeds from the Real Seeds company!  :D
I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days all attack me at once...

Different varieties of all the staples I've got, as I'm always looking out for the best tasting ones!
Also have a list somewhere, with the swapped seeds I have. Can't find it though at this moment :wacko:
