Origin: Central America. You won't be able to resist a Kabocha squash (Japanese winter pumpkin), not only because of their cute size (immediately you'll want to make little soup bowls out of their rinds), but also because they are tasty & good for you, rich in beta carotene, with a decent amount of vitamin C & iron to boot. The flesh near the rind is avocado green, giving way to a bright yellow-orange. You could roast them before you scoop out the flesh for a soup or they are delicious stuffed - a multi purpose sweet & savoury squash, & our favourite this year! A similar texture & flavour to a pumpkin & sweet potato combined! ...

A new generation of Kalanchoe which brings these highly popular houseplants back into fashion! Kalanchoe Dolly boasts fully double blooms, that are reminiscent of the frilly aquilegia flowers. A very vintage colour scheme of apple-green & apricot-pink petals make for an eye-catching display. The stunning blooms are borne above glossy dark green foliage. Like all Kalanchoes, this is a reliable succulent as it is tough, adaptable, & very easy to grow. It makes a showy focal point for a bright sunny room, or even a patio table centrepiece during the summer months. When inside it should be in a room with temperature of 18C (65F) to 24C (75F). Avoid leaving in direct sunlight as this can scorch the plant. As it is a succulent it stores water inside its fleshy leaves, therefore do not over water as this can cause rot. Feed between March & September when it is in active growth. Height & spread: 40cm (16). ...
