Rubesse
This is a very new red variety from one of my favourite plant breeders, Nigel Starling of Cygnet PB. It has an intense, attractive colour and good cooking and eating qualities. Unlike either of the current market leading red varieties, Rubesse combines yellow eelworm resistance with good common scab resistance. It may have a chance of success - it is certainly interesting at least one of Britain's major supermarket packers.
