Grafted Vegetables.

Grafted plants will be on sale from Good Friday (April 14th).

These vegetable plants have been grafted onto extremely vigorous root stocks resulting in superior growth compared to seed raised plants.

Commercial crops are usually grown in this way and have shown to have the following benefits:

  • Stronger plants producing more fruit.
  • Start cropping earlier and continue later into autumn.
  • Have greater resistance to pests and diseases.
  • Have less susceptibility to nutritional disorders.

The following are the varieties of grafted vegetables we will be stocking.
