[QUOTE="Robbity, post: 2156480, member: 93179"] I'd add gooseberries, black & red currants and rhubarb to my list of suitable fruit; and have a minimum of three varieties of raspberries to cover early, mid and late season crops. (I used to do this but it's so long since I've been "allowed" to grow fruit, I can't remember which ones I had, but try [URL='https://www.rhs.org.uk/advice/profile?PID=148'][B]here for lists[/B][/URL]. Blueberries can be grown - possibly in tubs if soil conditions aren't right. And how about some tiny Alpine strawberries for the children? Black/moroccan mint or peppermint for mint teas. Growing mint in a tub would prevent it from rampaging... And don't forget the Brussels sprouts!!:D Robbity [/QUOTE]
