that mix you sent me for late sowing was the business Flo! Seeds of Italy I think it was. Was it Misticanza? I do mixed leaves and add rocket cos it never contains any, not sure why. I've done loads and again like the oriental I've not noticed much difference except for the Seeds of Italy packet which was all unusual but dead hardy. They've only just gone to seed. There was a lovely escarole or some such thing in it with a lovely top like a rose in the way it curled Very Happy

Yup that one is really good Razz

Also have a T&M 'Niche Mixed' with lovely mix ... leaf radish, leaf carrot, wrinkled cress, red kale, red amaranth, purslane and burnet Razz it's an all the year through sort too ... that's a bonus! Very Happy

the red kale is lovely I reckon. Mine was quite low growing and tidy for ages then it goes bonkers, reaches for the sky and runs to seed.

I think the amaranth will be tall Flo if you don't eat it before it gets steam up Very Happy
