| There are many sources in England for giant vegetable variety seeds. As for Mr Lavery I think he is no longer in the giant vegetable seed business. But their are several good giant vegetable seed supliers in the uk. Finding good specimen seeds is alway a problem. You need to find the growers themselves to get seeds of some giant types. I suggest you try asking questions on the site below. What giant vegetable seed types were you looking for. |

| He is alive and well. Read Erick Shackels interview he he did with Bernard about his world record cabbage. Later. |

| I've heard this rumor several times that he passed away. I correspond with him; so I know that is not true. |

| Bernard Lavery was working for an Arab prince last I heard . you can get some of his varieties from "Thompson and Morgan" also check Ken Whealeys book "seed inventory " (latest year available) , and the U.S.A. germplasm GENE BANK ,SEED BANK . Bernard Lavery's book "I can grow " will give you other help . good luck. |
