This is how the purple sprouting broccoli looked last week.. fantastic! Especially bearing in mind the winter cold snap went to something like -15C, cold enough to totally freeze the water tank.
The other winter survivor was the kale, in fact it will take a lot to kill off kale. Sadly my broad bean seedlings which I went ot so much trouble for didn't survive the cold either here or in Edinburgh.. I really think autumn planting of this veg so far north is a waste of time. Real shame as I love really tender fresh broad beans...maybe next year!
