Mr Fothergills Swede Helenor 750 Seeds

Swede - Helenor

This variety produces globe shaped roots with excellent quality sweet flesh. It is easy to grow and very winter hardy.

Sow outdoors thinly from May to July, where they are to crop, 1.5cm deep, directly into finely-prepared, rich, well-dug soil, which has already been watered. Allow 45cm between rows. Seedlings usually appear in 14-21 days. Thin out to 25cm apart. Water well until plants are established. Make two or three successional sowings to provide a crop throughout the winter. Harvest from October to March.
