  • For planting nolw you can still buy some young veg plants that will grow from places like Rocket Gardens, Delfland Nurseries etc .

    As far as sowing now, and adding to the above lists you can still sow endive, some types of radish, broccoli raab, collards, corn salad , oriental veg such as mibuna, mizuna, komatsuna, mustard leaf, senposia greens, some pak choi. Some of these might need a little protection from frosts depending where you are but if you dont have a green house/cold frame, fleece or cloches would work well. HTH and good luck !
  • Lots of hardy annuals: cornflowers, calendula, etc.
    Chinese greens
    Lettuce (cover with a cloche to keep it going as long as possible)
    spring onions
    garlic (at the end of the month)
    onions setts (at the end of the month)
    :D Thanks to MSE, I am mortgage free!:D
