Go on. I love oxheart, dragon and Nates. I'm also trying St. Valery. Not much interest in the yellow or white ones but I do like the purple ones.

Ah well, you're already growing my favourites - St Valery and Nantes. I also like the various Chantenays. I've got one called Red-cored Chantenay in for this winter.

I grow them mostly for cooking. Bolero and Nelson have done very well for me. I am trialing Purple Sun this year.

I also love Flakkee. Despite being huge, they sweeten like crazy for us up north in the fall. Very tasty for me when I was gardening in clay in Clarence Creek. I also LOVED MORADO, a purple one with white core I ordered from Thomas Etty in England. You can write to them and order a larger amount than what tey sell ( packets) and the prices are really good. It often had purple rays in the white core, very beautiful to look at.
