Our intriguing selection of rare and unusual vegetable seeds offers both visual appeal and great home-grown flavour. Whether you want to get the kids interested in gardening or make a bold statement at your next dinner party, we have something for everyone. 

For hearty autumn dishes, explore a variety of unusual squash seeds that you won’t find in your local supermarket. Try the pure white ‘Mashed Potato’ winter squash – an attractive acorn-type squash with pale flesh that can be mashed just like potatoes. 

You’ll also find tomato seeds in a kaleidoscope of interesting colours, from yellows and oranges to the striking ‘Green Zebra’. Sowing and care instructions will vary depending on the cultivar, so read the packet carefully for best results.
