Customer Testimonials
"One trait we were looking for was TuYV resistance"
Chris Eglington, Ambassador OSR Grower, Norfolk
"We have Aurelia, Ambassador & INV1155, the best performing varieties are ones which do 'get on and go' in the Autumn. Pod shatter is, in my mind, a very highly valued trait"
David Fuller-Shapcott, Kelso, Scottish Borders
