Temperatures haven't been anywhere near single figures yet. For winter, if you've got room, you could try turnips, spinach, lamb's lettuce (mâche in French), radicchio (chicorie sauvage in French). We've sowed all of these in the last week or so and they're mostly coming up well and did well last year. The radicchio was doing OK until the storm on Thursday which washed some of the seedlings away.<BR/>You could also put leeks in, but you'd have to buy plants as it's too late to sow them. Hope this helps!chaiselonguehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11372135992072231446noreply@blogger.com
