I know we all do 'All Year Round' ...
very handy as you can sow it Jan-Mar inside, Mar-June outside and then again Sept-Oct later on to go through the winter to harvest the following summer.

And this year I am trying one called 'Snowball'.

Trevi is lovely (despite it being an F1 Evil or Very Mad

) and reliable. Its a green 'un.

I grew the Franchi 'Roamesco Precoce' last year. That one is green and pointy! Grows huge leaves so needs lots of space.
Took absolutely no time to cook!

well done Flo. Them's good uns Very Happy

I grew one but decided to leave it a day or two to get bigger Rolling Eyes

I think I've done Snowball - last year. Put a couple of Igloo in yesterday and about half a dozen 'Aviso' which are supposed to be the bees knees.
The AYR are ok but look a bit dull, like they need a bit of a polish Very Happy
