Green Banner is the perfect variety for Spring and Autumn production. It has an upright plant habit which allows good air movement and ease of harvesting. Green Banner cleans just as well as the other varieties and has the same taste and texture. Green Banner is ideally suited for the first and second drillings in spring to enable earlier harvest and for later summer drillings for season extension. This is due to Green Banner having great adaptability to cool growing conditions and vigorous plant growth. Green Banner has erect foliage allowing for easier disease control and aiding ease of harvest. Ease of stripping is a feature of this variety, resulting in a high achievable daily output. Green Banner has an excellent green to white contrast on the shank giving it a great visual appearance when bunched.
