Garden planning
I usually spend my "seed money" at Baker Creek Heirloom Seeds.
They ship promptly. Their prices are decent.
And they've got the most interesting stuff!
Cassabanana or Melocoton:
The fruit are brilliant, flaming red and are about 2' long, one of the most beautiful things I had ever seen! They have bright orange flesh that is sweet and is used in drinks, jellies and other desserts, it has a unique tropical fruit taste. The fruit are so fragrant and keep for a long period, like squash, making this a hot item for fall sales for pumpkin growers. Huge vines can grow to 50' and are quite ornamental, but they do require a long season.Guess I'll need to put up one heck of an arbor, for a 50-foot vine. Yikes.
49 varieties of heirloom tomatoes - and that's just the red ones!
We'll be canning white tomato sauce this year.
They also have gardening forums.
Note: I am not connected with nor an affiliate of Baker Creek. Just a satisfied customer.
