Ultimate Grafted Vegetables
Grower's Choice

- 1 Grafted Red Sweet Pepper ‘Maccabi’ Plant
- 1 Grafted Chilli Pepper 'Jamaican Yellow’
- When we think of “graft”, we think of hard work. When we think of grafted vegetables, however, it’s a different story entirely. These vegetables provide you with everything you could want – bigger (and longer) crop yield, and better pest/disease resistance – and all for minimal effort.
- But what are grafted vegetables, we hear you shout? Well, they’re similar to grafted trees in that two varieties of a species are taken, each with their own strength you’d like to harness – e.g. disease resistance and large crop yield – and then they’re grafted together into one unbeatable superplant!
- Haters say you can’t have your cake and eat it. The newly-formed (and definitely real) “Union of Grafted Vegetables” respectfully disagrees.
- Our Ultimate Grafted Vegetable Collection contains all the essential veggies you need to grow a garden shed load (the technical term) of delicious homegrown produce.
- Tomatoes, peppers and chillies are amongst the most versatile vegetables out there from a cooking perspective – and they’re such a doddle to grow, too.
- So, whether you’re a seasoned gardener or dipping your toes into the exciting veg patch world for the very first time, this collection of grafted vegetables has what you’re looking for. Ditch the hard graft and get grafted vegetables, instead.

Meet Cameron
An experienced hand from seed to harvest
When it comes to veg plants, if Cameron doesn’t know about it? It ain’t worth knowing. They’re one of his horticultural passions and the quality of the produce he – well, produces – at the nursery is testament to that fact. Cameron pairs time-honoured horticultural traditions alongside the very best modern techniques in our fabulous, purpose-built nursery in Evesham. With a background that saw him place at the Grand Finals at the Young Horticultural Awards back in 2022, we’re proud to have someone that really knows his onions.
