have some seeds.
Mar. 22nd, 2009 11:33 amI am going through my collection of seeds and being realistic about what I will be able to plant and tend to this year. (a baby arriving in late Summer makes one re-adjust the plans a little) I have some seeds to give away if anyone is interested. (kind of a first come first serve, as supplies last sort of thing)
All heirloom varieties.
Yellow Hickery King Dent Corn (as described from the Baker Seed website) Large, yellow-kerneled variant of White Hickory King. It is also harder to find. This variety is still grown in the Appalachian region, where it has been a favorite since the late 1800s. Traditionally used for making roasting ears, hominy, grits, and in hidden mountain spots, moonshine! Huge stalks are quite strong.
Yeah! Moonshine!
Bianco di Maggio Onion 80 days. Flat, Italian "cipollini" variety. These delicious, small white onions command a high price at specialty markets. Very sweet and mild, used in Italy for pickling, grilling and in salads.
Carentan Leeks -French variety from the 19th century.
King of the Garden Lima Beans -easy to grow and eat. Will require pole supports.
Just comment and we can coordinate email/mailing address stuff.
