Bull's Heart This is a very old
Russian variety bearing large pink oxheart-type tomatoes with excellent,
sweet flavor. Strong plants produce abundantly, with some fruit growing to
2 lbs. and more. Indeterminate. 87 days |

New Yorker Very early variety
just right for northern or short season areas. Compact vines bear heavy,
concentrated sets with medium sized scarlet fruit of fine texture.
Determinate. 66 days. |
|
|
Campbell Popular for canning
because of crack-resistant, firm, large fruit of rich red color. Sets
heavy crops even under unfavorable conditions. Matures slightly earlier
than Heinz 1350 with larger, 7 oz. flatter fruit. Determinate. 70 days. |
|
|

Habanero (Red) This bright red
version of Habanero is one hot pepper - a staggering 285,000 Scoville
Units! The fruit shape and size are much like the regular Habanero,
wrinkled 1 inch to 1-1/2 inch long peppers with a tapered end. These
peppers turn a brilliant red upon maturity and grow in abundance on 3-1/2
foot tall plants. Hot enough to suit even the most dedicated chile lover.
90 to 100 days. |

Kung Pao |

Largo Purple Absolutely striking
ornamental pepper plant with violet colored foliage mixed in with white
and dark green. As these plants reach 2-1/2 to 3 feet tall, the effect is
like that of a purple shrub. We have not seen any other ornamental peppers
with such solid purple, jewel-toned foliage. It truly makes a very
impressive display. Conical peppers mature to deep red and are hot. |
|
|
Medusa Narrow, twisted,
2.5-inch long peppers, stand upright above diminutive plants, in a
stunning display of color- ivory to yellow, orange, and finally bright
red, with all color stages appearing together. The look is intriguing and
reminiscent of the "snaky" hairdo of the mythological character
Medusa. Well-branched plants grow no taller than 6 to 8 inches and become
literally covered with colorful peppers. Medusa is wonderful for planting
in landscape borders as well as for growing in small containers. These
peppers are non-pungent, making Medusa safe to plant in areas visited by
children |
|
|
Chilaca 8 to 10 inch long
cylindrical peppers are thin walled, and dark green ripening to dark
brown. They have less than 250 Scoville units and are mainly used dried
for their rich, smoky flavoring in sauces. Plants are tobacco mosaic virus
resistant. 75-80 days. |
|
|
SCARLET RUNNER Ornamental Climber and Edible Bean - Height 8 to 12 feet Colorful ornamental vine with attractive scarlet
flowers in showy clusters. Beans are edible. Use as a snap bean when young
or shell and cook as a lima bean when more mature |
|
|
Kentucky Blue (Pole) A New All-America Selections Winner. Kentucky Blue was developed from the popular varieties of Kentucky Wonder and Blue Lake Pole garden beans. It produces earlier than its parents and very abundantly with round, 6 to 7 inch sweet flavored pods that produce throughout the picking season. Approximately 60 days to maturity. |
