Fruiting vegetable seeds for a summer harvest

Fruiting vegetables are the stars of the summer plot — the warmth-loving crops you grow for their fruit rather than their leaves or roots. The group covers everyday favourites like tomatoes, peppers and chillies and cucumbers, through to courgettes and pumpkins. Most are sown indoors in early spring and planted out once it warms up, then crop generously into autumn.

New to growing veg? Our guides walk you through sowing, feeding and supporting fruiting crops.

How to grow fruiting vegetables

These are tender, sun-loving crops, so start them off warm. Sow tomatoes, sweet peppers and chillies indoors from late winter, harden them off, and plant out after the last frost. Give them a sunny, sheltered spot, keep them well fed once flowering, and support tall or heavy plants. Squashes and cucumbers can also be sown direct once the soil is warm.

Choosing what to grow

Short on space? Compact cherry tomatoes and patio peppers thrive in containers. Got room to spread? Trailing summer squash and pumpkins fill a bed fast. For the full range of everyday crops, browse all vegetable seeds.

The two crops every summer plot wants: vine-ripened tomatoes and a steady supply of peppers and chillies.
