My second seed order arrived today from Heritage Harvest Seed. It was my first time ordering from them, they are located in Manitoba, Canada and offer a very good selection of unusual heirloom veggies. Goodies include:
Tiger's Eye Beans: Large, flat, kidney shaped beans.Early producer, 80 days, bush habit.
Old Time Red & Yellow Tomato: A huge bicolouredvariety. Indeterminate, 90 days.
Monomakh's Hat Tomato: These were a freebie!A russian variety, semi determinate, large 2lb fruit, 70 days.
Meaty with good flavor
Deacon Dan Beets: Red/white marbled flesh, good storage beet.Grown by a deacon in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. Circa 1800's.
Amish Bottle Onions: An extremely rare onion from Pennsylvania.Produces narrow, 6" long bulbs that keep well, good cooking onion.
Dragon Carrots: Purple skinned, orange corred carrot.Nice sweet spicy taste. Second time grow these, they are excellent.
With this order in I only have one left to make. It will be from Pinetree and I am hoping to get it done tonight. Once that is in and a few more seed trades I will be all stocked for the coming growing season.
