An exceptional collection of fruit and perennial vegetables that offer incredible value and provide delicious crops year after year.

  • Collection comprises:
  • Jerusalem Artichoke ‘Fuseau’ (20 tubers) - An increasingly popular, smooth tubered variety, making them easier to prepare for the kitchen than the traditional knobbly tubers. Height: 3m (10"). Spread: 90cm (35").
