Which Underrated Vegetable Should You Try Growing This Year? Our Quiz Has the Answer

Look, we get it; the more unusual (or underrated!) vegetables have a bit of an unfair reputation. They’re often seen as fussy, high-maintenance, or strictly for expert gardeners with endless time and space.

In reality, though, many of them are surprisingly adaptable. Some, too, are actually even easier to grow and more low-maintenance than the supermarket staples we default to year after year. The trick is choosing the right one for you.

Yes, the amount of space you have, how much time you can realistically give, your confidence level, your USDA planting zone, and even your taste preferences all play a part. After all, a vegetable that thrives for one gardener might be a frustrating flop for another.

That’s where this quiz comes in. Answer the questions below as honestly as you can (there are no right or wrong answers, promise!) and we’ll match you with an underrated vegetable that suits your gardening style, space, and appetite for adventure.

So, how did you get on? If you whizzed through this (and loved it), then you might like to find out your houseplant soulmate test or figure out which flower seed is right for you this spring – and have a bash at our extra special hydrangea personality quiz, too.
