Does anyone have any suggestions for plants that like cold wet weather.


Cabbages. But as you are just coming into summer I think this might
be too early. With cabbages you have to wage a constant war against
grubs.

Lettuce, provided the soil drains well. But in hot weather lettuce will
bolt to seed. They also need spraying to control grubs.
