KalesKales are currently undergoing a huge resurgence in popularity due to their fantastic nutritional benefits. Tozer Seeds predicted this trend some years ago and have reacted by the timely development of a brand new contemporary range of brightly coloured kales with fantastic leaf textures and unique eating qualities. All these new kales require only very light cooking and are well suited to modern culinary methods including stir-fry, steam and microwave. No need to boil them like traditional kales and are mild and sweet to eat with none of the traditional brassica bitterness associated with older kale varieties. The new kales work well in shredded mixed leaf packs where the fantastic colours and textures will be sure to catch the customer’s eye and the fantastic flavours will guarantee repeat purchases. Cultivation of the new Tozer kales is identical to traditional kales, using the same sowing dates and spacings and they are all very winter hardy. They are also very versatile, with all varieties being suitable for harvest from young plants to full-grown mature leaf.

Butternut SquashTozer Seeds is the only company actively breeding butternut squash for Northern European as well as Southern European production. We trial an extensive amount of winter squash from around the world. The long storage potential for winter squash allows for an extended sales period that can continue from harvest through to spring the following year for some cultivars under the right conditions. Research is currently being carried out to develop earlier fruiting and maturing butternut varieties as well as niche types such as Coquina squash. Tozer Seeds offers varieties both for fresh market and the processing industry.

RocketTozer Seeds is at the forefront of developing and breeding new rocket varieties. We aim to develop a selection of varieties, providing supermarkets with a hotter flavour and more interesting leaf shapes for salad packs; providing the grower with an easier plant to grow that is more vigorous, slower bolting and with darker leaves. We have also introduced the first mildew tolerant varieties with high vigour which has been a true revelation in the industry.

LettuceTozer Seeds have been breeding lettuce for over 50 years and were among the first to introduce mildew resistance. We continue to work hard to introduce more resistant varieties but also concentrate on enhanced texture, flavour, shape and colour. This attitude to breeding has led to the introduction of internationally grown varieties such as Ashbrook and Osterley. Our assortment is mainly focussed on midi cos types for full size as well as baby leaf.

Coriander

HerbsWithin the herbs category, Tozer Seeds specialise in coriander and basil varieties. Coriander Calypso was a breakthrough variety and is widely recognised as the slowest bolting available. It also has a low growing point making it suitable for ‘cut and come again’ production. Our work on coriander has also led to the innovative Confetti® type, ideal for baby leaf salads.Our development of basil has led to the introduction of Crimson King, the most uniform and best tasting red available. Much of our basil work is now focused on producing varieties more suited to Northern European climate and more able to withstand damage during processing, British Basil is the latest example of this work.

Later sowings will hold into the autumn but the growing is always short. White Spear will continue to grow past the ideal market size and can produce enormous roots if allowed to grow on.

ParsnipThe development of new and improved parsnip varieties has been important in the history of Tozer Seeds and we continue to put great emphasis on this category. We pioneered the development of F1 hybrid varieties with the release of Gladiator in 1982 and the very successful Javelin in 1991, followed by Albion and Dagger. We are continuing to develop new hybrids with good vigour, canker resistance, shallow crowns, smooth skin, resistance to bruising and white roots of uniform shape and size. The latest varieties are now in trial and available for you to review.

F1 Hybrid Varieties

Javelin can be sown throughout the sowing year and its tremendous fieldholdingcapacitymeansit can be cropped almost continually from July to June.

Seed from Tozer Seeds is generally sold as treated, although untreated seed is also available. In addition we can offer polymer seed treatments. A dramatic reduction in chemical use is achieved by this highly accurate method of crop protection. Fungicides and insecticides are applied to the seed surface by a specialised film coating technique, field operator and environmental exposure is therefore greatly reduced.
