Capsicum annuum. Green to Red. 80 days. We’re on the Stocky Red Roaster bandwagon! We grew this red, Italian type pepper for market and loved it for its sweet flavor raw, roasted, or cooked, as well as its productivity and size (4-6″ long, 2″ wide at shoulders). It turns out we weren’t alone, as Stocky…

Capsicum annuum. Green to Red. 60 days. This is the best sweet pepper we have found for short season areas. Short plants ripen medium-thick-walled, early, sweet, blocky-round type fruit a full 2 weeks earlier than other peppers.

Dianthus barbatus. 60 days. Deep, velvety red, 1” flowers grow in slightly dome-shaped clusters that reach 4” across. Petals feature two similar shades of red, providing a depth of color to Barcelona Red that feels like there is something beyond human perception (or at least beyond this human’s perception anyway!). Unlike other varieties of this…

Dianthus barbatus. 50 days. This Dianthus / Sweet William is an annual cut flower version of the cottage garden favorite.

Eragrostis tef. An early maturing white seeded teff that consistently performs well in conditions varying from the short cool summer of 2010 to the long hot summer of 2015.

Phaseolus acutifolius. Orange-Tan. 85 days. Tepary beans are small, flat beans, traditionally grown by Native Americans in the desert Southwest. Amazingly drought and heat tolerant, they prefer sandy alkaline soils, but Sacaton Brown performs very well for us even in our relatively heavy, acidic soil and cool climate. Tepary beans have more protein and higher…

Brassica carinata. A selection of Abyssinian mustard. Excellent flavor with some garlic overtones. One of Andrew’s favorite salad greens, especially in early winter, though Sarah likes it more for braising. Dark green, oval leaves with slightly irregular edges average 4-7” long. May size up enough for bunching, but does not get as big as other…

Nicotiana alata. 70 days. Bright white trumpet-shaped flowers bloom in the evening and practically glow at night—simply stunning in the full moon! But more significant is the amazing jasmine smell that is particularly strong at dusk as it begins to attract large moths for pollination. The scent is so strong you can smell it from…

Nicotiana tabacum. As folks that haven’t spent much time in New England, we were surprised to learn that Connecticut and Massachusetts have a 300 year history of producing premium tobacco for wrapping cigars. Warm summers, long day length, and high humidity provide favorable conditions for leaves that can reach 3′ across and twice as long!…

Nicotiana x sandarae. 60 days. Dark, deep purple, trumpet-shaped flowers with all of the intoxicating fragrance of taller nicotianas. Shorter, 2′ tall plants are perfect when creatively placed as accents in the garden, or in containers. The flowers are loved by twilight and nocturnal insects. We discovered this cute little plant at Nichols Garden Nursery…

Nicotiana tabacum. This rare, Iranian tobacco grows about 4-5′ tall and produces lovely white flowers with lavender-pink blush. Said to be a good, full-flavored smoke and also good for a homemade garden insecticide, though we haven’t tried either. We have been told that Shirazi is easy to cure out here in the West and doesn’t…

Physalis philadelphica (synonym Physalis ixocarpa). 75 days. This breeding project has been a long time coming and we are super proud of the results! After noticing a Plaza Latina Giant Green tomatillo with an interesting purple blush, Andrew decided to use the serendipitous cross to breed a new tomatillo. Little did we know that Andrew’s…

Physalis philadelphica (synonym Physalis ixocarpa). 75 days. A large, green tomatillo similar to Plaza Latina Giant Green, but a little earlier to mature and not quite as big. Fruit are 2½” wide and a great choice for market farmers and gardeners. Under-ripe apple-green colored fruit make a nice tart addition to salsas, but we also…

Physalis philadelphica (synonym Physalis ixocarpa). 70 days. This is our effort to breed a medium-sized purple tomatillo that stores for a very long time off the vine.

Solanum lycopersicum. 65-70 days. Indet. This gorgeous tomato was love at first sight when we trialed it – well, maybe it was love at first taste. And that wasn’t just because it was the first big tomato we tasted that season, although it was among the earliest to mature. Giant beefsteak fruit ripen early and…

Solanum lycopersicum. Yellow. 55-60 days. Det. Dwarf. This was one of our earliest and tastiest tomatoes in 2010, which was for many gardeners in our area, “the year of late, bland tomatoes.” 1-3 oz, yellow-gold globes are plentiful and early, yielding for quite a while despite being determinate. One of the only yellow tomatoes we…

Solanum lycopersicum. 60 days. Semi-det. Very attractive bushy plants are heavy yielders all through the season of flattened, medium-sized, deep red 4-6 oz fruit.

Solanum lycopersicum. 70-75 days. Indet. Big, red beefsteak variety from the Astrakhan region of Russia. Always a big hit in our tomato patch. The appearance alone is all we could want in a beefsteak, and with flavor to match, Astrakhanskie is one of our go-to varieties when harvesting for the kitchen. What really gets us…

 Solanum lycopersicum.Yellow. 65-70 days. Indet. Earlier than most other beefsteak types, this gorgeous, 3-5″ round oblate, 6-12 oz, yellow beefsteak comes on strong in those seasons when many other tomatoes struggle to ripen. In addition to its earliness and productivity, its impressive delicious flavor is much better than other yellow tomatoes, with a slightly acidic…

Solanum lycopersicum. Red Paste. 75 days. Indet. Seemingly hundreds of 2-3″ meaty, blemish free, elongated egg-shaped, 3-4 oz fruit. When the rest in the greenhouse had succumbed to mold late in the season, the Baylor Paste was still rockin’! Also produces well outside, maintaining quality fruit very late into the season. No blossom end rot…

Solanum lycopersicum. Red Paste. 75 days. Indet. Andrew has been looking for a productive early Italian giant pear tomato for years and none of the standards seem to produce well here in Oregon.

Solanum lycopersicum. Purple Cherry. 70 days. Indet. So you might be wondering why this tomato? Doesn’t everybody sell this tomato? Well, our penchant for obscurity sometimes goes too far and this tomato is just too good to pass up. Tall plants have huge yields of medium-sized, round, purplechocolate- black cherry fruit that taste so good,…

Solanum lycopersicum. Orange Cherry. 65 days. Indet. This may be the closest anybody has gotten to recreating the sweet, fruity flavor of the classic hybrid tomato Sungold in an open pollinated version. Whereas most attempts to develop an open-pollinated Sungold have started with dehybridizing (i.e., saving seeds from) the legendary Japanese F1 hybrid, tomato breeders…
