Drop Dead Red Sunflowers
The Drop Dead Red Sunflower Mixture is a florist's dream. This designer mixture of pollenless, long lasting, cut-flower quality sunflowers features a range of reds from soft autumnal hues to bicolor to deep, dark burgundy tones. A bouquet or border of these stunners will stop your visitors in their tracks. Sunflowers are easy to grow from seed, and bloom for an extended period from mid-summer to fall. Sunflowers can be planted in the spring after the last average frost date. This sunflower will grow in almost any soil but it blooms and thrives best in rich garden soil. Keep the plants attractive by removing spent flowers. The Drop Dead Red Sunflower would be an excellent addition to a wildflower patch or naturalized area receiving little or no care. ... get more information
Mache Corn Salad - Big Seeded The leaves are so tender, they melt in your mouth. We chose the big-seeded Mache variety because it handles spring/summer heat without getting bitter. Great for both north and south gardens. This old garden green, enjoyed in the late stone age, contrasts nicely with the sharp-flavored greens in salads. It tastes delightful cooked quickly like spinach and combines nicely with fruits and vegetables. Mache Corn Salad is cool season annual. In northern climates, plant in early spring as soon as the ground is workable. In mild climates, plant in the fall for winter harvest. Mache prefers fertile, moist, and well drained soil. Mache is good for intercropping among larger vegetables such as broccoli and looks great with other greens. To harvest, simply cut off at ground level. |
