The Allotment Collection makes the first ones for you: twelve reliable, well-tried vegetables that cover the crops every plot holder grows, chosen so there is something to sow in most months and something to pick in every season.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBroad Bean 'Aquadulce Claudia' starts the year early, sown in autumn for the first fresh crop of the following summer. Pea 'Hurst Greenshaft' is the dependable main-crop pea. For the root bed there is Carrot Autumn King 2 for storing, bolt-resistant Beetroot Boltardy and Parsnip Tender \u0026amp; True, which only gets sweeter after a frost. Onion Ailsa Craig grows large heritage onions from seed, and Leek Musselburgh stands through the hardest winter. Tomato Gardeners Delight is the sweet, reliable cherry tomato that crops in a greenhouse or outdoors in a sunny spot, and Courgette All Green Bush gives more than most households can eat. Lettuce Little Gem and Radish Sparkler keep the salad coming, and Kale Nero di Toscana crops right through the winter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA year on the plot\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAutumn:\u003c\/strong\u003e broad beans, to overwinter.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLate winter to early spring:\u003c\/strong\u003e onions, leeks and tomatoes under cover.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpring:\u003c\/strong\u003e peas, carrots, beetroot, parsnips and kale outdoors; courgettes indoors to plant out after the frosts.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpring to late summer:\u003c\/strong\u003e lettuce and radish a little at a time, every few weeks.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBetween them they give broad beans and peas in early summer, tomatoes, courgettes, salads and beetroot through the summer, onions and carrots to store, and leeks, parsnips and kale through the winter.
