Ageratum houstonianum. 50 days. One of the easiest cut flowers to grow. Red Bouquet Ageratum produces tons of small, fuzzy violet-red flowers that form in clusters atop 18 – 24” stems all summer long. Often thought of as a filler flower, we think it can be much more – with several stems bundled together, the…
Smyrnium olusatrum. Biennial. This plant goes by many names and has a long history, possibly going back to Alexander the Great. Ancient Romans ate the leaves, stems, roots, and flower buds as vegetables. Leaves are comparable to a mild-flavored parsley, and are tasty in salad or used as an herb. Large umbels of yellow-flowered blossoms are…
Pimpinella anisum. Annual. 75 days. Many people are familiar with Anise via treats such as the Italian biscuit biscotti, or specialty liquors such as ouzo or Jägermeister. The licorice-like smell of the seeds freshens the air (and breath) and helps stimulate digestion; it is also used in teas for digestive and respiratory support. The first…
Callistephus chinensis. 80 days. We have become enamored with China asters the past few years as a late season focal flower for bouquets or bedding plants. With its dramatic royal purple peony-like blossoms, Tower Violet kept the love alive for 2025. Plants grow to about 2’ tall and 1’ wide, with blooms that average 2”-3”…
Hordeum vulgare. Lawina Hulless barley is one of the easiest grains to grow and thresh, making this variety a good choice for the homestead gardener. It may be the first grain we grew, cooked, and ate. At the time, back in 2007, there were very few options for locally produced grains and we were excited…
Phaseolus vulgaris. Green Pods. 60 days. Tender and tasty fancy green bush snap bean that holds quality late into the season. One of the sweetest and most delicious green beans, Grenoble always ranks at the top of the list in our flavor trials. Whereas most modern bush snap beans have a more determinant growth habit…
Brassica oleracea. Green storage. 100 days. A late season green storage cabbage well-suited for fall production. Tender and sweet, great in fresh eating applications like coleslaw; also makes exceptional sauerkraut. Impressive lack of farty-smell when cooked! Heads are slightly oblong in shape. Dowinda Cabbage is best planted out in mid-July for harvest in November, when…
Zea mays. Flour/Parching. 85 days. A beautiful flour corn bred by Carol Deppe, author of some of the best books on plant breeding, and breeder of many of our favorite varieties – including Candystick Delicata, Goldini 2 Zucchini, and Cascade Ruby Gold Flint Corn. Starburst Manna Parching corn produces about 50% single color ears in…
Allium altaicum. Green Onion/Scallion. 65 days. Perennial to zone 5. The Altai Onion of Siberia is the fabled possible ancestor of Allium fistulosum, the scallion/green onion/bunching onions we all know and love. Rich, spicy flavor and heavy duty winter hardiness make Altai Onion an excellent perennial vegetable. Seemingly a cultivated selection from the wild type,…
Capsicum annuum. Medium Hot. 70 days green, 90 red. Jala-Spike Jalapeño is the hotter and pointier compliment to our Party Popper Jalapeño. This spike of capsaicin is nearly as hot as a serrano pepper but has the flavor and shape of a traditional 3-3.5” long jalapeño. After almost a decade of selecting our ideal jalapeño…
Capsicum chinense. Very Hot. 90-100 days. Peach Torch is the third and final release from our habanero x Aji Limon project trilogy. It is a happy medium, both in appearance and heat-level, between the hotter LimĂłn Lightning and the milder Orange Embers Habanero. Although not quite as hot as a traditional habanero, it still packs…
Brassica oleracea. 25 days baby, 60 days full. Pentland Brig kale is at the top of the list of the most vigorous B. oleracea kales. It quickly produces copious amounts of lightly-curled green leaves. Robust enough to harvest for market bunches yet tender and sweet enough to win over even kale skeptics. The plants can…
Consolida ajacis. 65 days. Towering spires hold dozens of 1.5” flowers that bloom continuously up stems reaching to 5’ tall. Sydney Blue Picotee’s petals are white in the center and gradually transition to dark lavender at the edges for a romantic cottage garden feel. Larkspurs are a bit difficult to germinate and notoriously finicky about…
Lactuca sativa. Mini Red Romaine. 30 days baby; 55 full. Named for one of the most abundant, and boldly colored, birds of North America. The name was inspired by a flock of RWBLs (yes, we are bird-nerds!) that moved in to glean the remnants of our sunflower seed crop while our first crop of this…
Tagetes erecta. 55 days. With big yellow pom-poms that seem impossibly bright, Yellow Supreme Marigold appears dayglow when the light hits it just right. To borrow from the description for Yellowest Yellow paint by Stuart Semple, “Visible light is powerfully reflected by this high pigment” … flower. Sunglasses are recommended. This ultra-bright flower is available to…
Asclepias speciosa. Perennial to zone 3. Showy Milkweed is native to all Western states and is the most common species of milkweed native to Oregon. Plants grow to 4’-5’ tall when irrigated, with large, pale green, lobe-shaped leaves. Milkweed is known to thrive along roadside ditches and other neglected areas, where it tends to grow…
Abelmoschus esculentus. Red. 65-75 days. Gorgeous okra with red stems and pods and showy cream-colored hibiscus-like flowers. We have been impressed with Yuma Red’s productivity – it flowers late into the season on plants that grow to 5’ in our Pacific Northwest location. Plants are said to get much larger in hotter areas. Okra is…
Allium cepa. Yellow Storage. 100 days. Long Day. A semi-flat yellow onion from Ireland with remarkably good flavor. So tasty it even impressed our good friend Elanor, a market grower turned seed grower with decades of experience growing (and storing and eating!) many varieties of onions. Buan is one of the longest storing onions we…
Rumex patientia. 75 days. Perennial to zone 5. A semi-wild perennial with a long culinary history in Central and Eastern Europe that is right at home with Transylvanian Sorrel, Buck’s Horn Plantain, and Salad Burnet. Patience Dock can be used as a salad green while young, although best used as a sautĂ© green (cooked like…
Brassica rapa. 20 days baby, 40 days full. Add a purple pop to your salad mix, sautĂ© mix, or bunching greens with Purple Rapa Pop — a mild mustard green that is as versatile as it is varied. Leaves are a bit wavy, with colors ranging from bright green through dark purple, with some bright…
Rudbeckia hirta. 80-90 days. Perennial to zone 8. Sahara Rudbeckia is one of the flowers in our fields that nearly every visitor pauses to admire, and most say they want to grow. With a unique color palette of smoky hues ranging from golden to rose, and burgundy to chocolate (sometimes seemingly all in one flower!),…
Sesamum indicum. 90-110 days. Sesame is a heat loving plant that can be difficult to grow in areas with cool growing seasons, such as our location in Oregon. We are thrilled that the Northern Sesame Supergroup may be another step towards selecting a more successful sesame for our climate!  After several failed attempts wherein plants barely…
Xerochrysum bracteatum. 75 days. The blooms of Scarlet Strawflower are a vibrantly rich, lovely red with a touch of gold, making this everlasting great for bouquets, wreaths, garlands, and many other creative uses – especially around the holiday season. We have even been known to use them as festive packing peanuts for gifts! Blossoms grow…
Capsicum annuum. Green to Gold. 75 days. Small, round, orange bell peppers are deliciously sweet and great for snacking. Early maturity for an orange bell and so productive! We harvested dozens of fruit from each plant. Produces well in cool conditions and resists blossom end rot. Fruit holds well on and off the plant. Great…
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…
Solanum lycopersicum. Pink-red. 80-90 days. Indet. We have been experimenting with storage tomatoes for years and have found most of them to be well, meh, flavor-wise. What is the point of a tomato in December or January if it doesn’t taste good? Enter Montserrat, a hanging tomato from the Catalonia autonomous region of Spain. Fruit…
