Advantages: Easy to use, Looks impressive, Good results. Disadvantages: None
In my quest to save money, eat a more healthy diet and help the environment my sister, who lives next door to me, my daughter and myself decided we would turn our green fingers to growing our own fruit and veg. We both had enough room in our gardens to plant a good variety of veg, we both have dwarf fruit trees and we both have raspberry bushes but neither of us could seem to find quite enough room for strawberries plants and of course, with strawberries being the perfect juicy summer fruit with so many uses, from smothering them in sugar and cream to blitzing them in a smoothie, we had to think of something.
Whilst browsing around our local Dobbies we came across the Haxnicks Strawberry or Herb PatioPlanters, which were advertised as being perfect for small gardens, patios and balconies. Sold in a pack of 2 for £15 we decided to ...
Peas please Louise,
I often have a packet of Tesco frozen garden peas in my freezer. I think the packaging must have changed since this category was added as it is not such a lush green pack anymore. The product the same just Tesco has updated the pack

Advantages: Delicious and very easy to grow Disadvantages: You have to grow your own.
I had never heard of the Asparagus Pea before and only came across it purely by chance whilst browsing a seed catalogue for suitable Kohl Rabi and Sweet Corn to grow this year.
The Asparagus Pea, or Tetronoglobus Purpurea to give its Sunday name, is not something you are likely to find in the supermarket or local greengrocers. I adore Asparagus and as the UK season lasts only 8 weeks, rather than have to buy the imported stuff from Peru, I thought these may well be worth trying to satisfy my taste for Asparagus.
They are not really a pea at all, but are in fact a vetch (that's a climbing plant with a bean like fruit for those not in the know), these are bushy plants bearing deep red flowers which appear in summer, followed by pale green curiously 4 sided shaped winged pods.
Whilst they are not really that common in Britain, they ...
