We were in a garden center and a couple walked in to buy seeds. Talking with them, it became clear that they were just overwhelmed by the amount of seeds on offer and the technical descriptions on the packets. So they inspired us to launch a range of seeds which are, well, easy to grow and written in plain English with no jargon. You will find a simple 'Question and Answer' format like 'How should I water', 'Where should I plant' and 'How many days for germination'. We also have online assistance for the facebook generation of veg growers at www.seedsofitaly.com

EASY23 - Turnips may not seem the most glam of ingredients, but are actually good just chipped and fried in a bit of butter, pinch of salt, eat on the side of a steak. Sow in late spring in the ground.
EASY24 - More peppery than round red radishes, cut them and eat with butter and a little salt or add to a salad. Sow it in the spring and again in the autumn for two crops of juicy, fresh, crunchy radishes.
