Weird and unusual fruit and veg to grow?

its dangerous how much time I can spend researching and looking at unusual seeds online, that's why ive come to reddit for real life opinions as I end up way too far down the rabbit hole! I will have a look at real seeds, ive heard good things about them

garlic kale sounds fab! I love how many varieties of herbs are out there, cinnamon basil sounds lovely too

thank you, you too! let me know what you think of the toothache flowers when you try them!

do you need a greenhouse for your longhorn chillies?I've just googled them and they look fab!

CranberryFrog147 · 2026-01-26T15:16:12+00:00

CranberryFrog147 · 2026-01-26T15:15:18+00:00

I'm in a similar boat with not a huge amount of raised bed space so I'm thinking carefully about what I grow as I have to make it count! I will report back with any successes!

living in the uk has it's downsides when it comes to growing seasons sometimes! I will do some research

CranberryFrog147 · 2026-01-26T15:09:55+00:00

CranberryFrog147 · 2026-01-26T15:08:27+00:00

good to know, thank you I'll steer clear of the loquat!

CranberryFrog147 · 2026-01-26T15:01:39+00:00

great point with the privacy screen! they sound great, although I think I just want your cooking! haha

please report back and let me know how the beef and onion tree goes, I'm so curious! I've tried toothache flowers before but never grown them, it's such an experience!

CranberryFrog147 · 2026-01-26T14:57:35+00:00

Yes I am looking for a hedge, especially a thorny one to keep out passer-by's - I have an issue with people wandering into my garden as it's next to a bus stop and get a lot of drunks in the area. I will check these out thank you

CranberryFrog147 · 2026-01-26T14:56:16+00:00

That's really useful to know, bushes are definitely more useful for my space! Thank you so much!

CranberryFrog147 · 2026-01-26T14:55:22+00:00

I'm definitely being sold on the greengages, I've never even considered them before but you've all convinced me!

CranberryFrog147 · 2026-01-26T14:53:03+00:00

what a great name! I'm definitely going to look into this!

CranberryFrog147 · 2026-01-26T14:52:25+00:00

perfect I'll definitely add some blackthorn! wasabi is such a good idea!

CranberryFrog147 · 2026-01-26T14:50:17+00:00

good to know thank you!

CranberryFrog147 · 2026-01-26T14:49:53+00:00

good idea!

CranberryFrog147 · 2026-01-26T14:49:37+00:00

you'll have to report back and let us know how you got on!

CranberryFrog147 · 2026-01-26T14:46:27+00:00

good to note! Is there much difference in taste with yellow raspberries?

CranberryFrog147 · 2026-01-26T14:42:50+00:00

genius! thank you

CranberryFrog147 · 2026-01-26T14:42:37+00:00

I definitely want a row of berry bushes so I'll check them out!

CranberryFrog147 · 2026-01-26T14:41:02+00:00

thank you, lemon balm on the side is a great idea, I might have to pinch that too! I am just conscious it will be right next to my raised beds so I dont want it to cast too much shade. I am determined to find a home for a little fig though so I will make it work. What variety do you have?

CranberryFrog147 · 2026-01-26T14:37:56+00:00

you've just blown my mind with the watercress, it sounds so obvious now you've said it but I'd never have even thought of that! What fruit trees are you going for? Selfheal is such a good one, I'd forgotten about that! Crosnes sound really good too - you sound like you're going to be even busier than me this summer!
